Not a very good shot but a very weird looking bird.

Thanks for the name, I got that all screwed up. It is a strange bird, and the mouth is really large as I remember it. Anybody else have a photo of one? steve

Hi Bob
Nice shot, It is a bit strange to see them so low to the ground. Were these in a sanctuary?

For ajosteve here is a link to one of my shots
