Lovely shot, Ken. I can almost hear him saying "chiquita."

Excellent photograph of this very interesting looking, colorful bird, Richard! I can't help but wonder what the purpose of the wattles are?

Sexual attraction, Mike. Evidently the wattles get bigger and brighter in the breeding season.


Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.

Thanks, Pippan. We have no birds over here that are at all like the yellow wattlebird. I'm surprised at how large these birds are.
