Female?

Are you sure Alan?, I've never seen a female this colourful - in any light.

There's a lot of male indicators there... Pinky/orange breast and cheeks, blue/grey head, black immediately above the beak. Chestnut back.

Anyway, nice capture, lots of fine detail, a nice angle showing off the wing plumage and a cheeky look back over the shoulder.

Thanks for sharing

Kev
