Black hood, blue wings,white plumage and black and white tail, it's a gorgeous bird. Feel sorry for the little chick though. Nice shot Jack showing good detail, well done.

Aug 24, 2006 22:10 | #8 Yep, I think it is. I am pretty sure it was taking it out of a nest in the tree. There were some other birds that I'm pretty sure were not fond of it being there. The noise in the tree is what caught my attention. Jack

I guess it just takes talent to find the bird types, and practice I suppose. I couldn't find anything close when I looked. Thank you very much. Jack
