Taken today.
Got lucky with the timing on this one. Loads of people were throwing bread at the fella, but I think he was full, and trying to walk around it :D.

Thanks for looking!
Edit: This is crying out for a caption(hint to canonloader)

Man Seany that is more than a lucky shot, the detail and color are fantastic.

I think that one belongs on the wall.

Great shot! Looks like a conductor to me, maybe the caption should be "A one and a two...."

Agreed with above, you nailed this one from every point, the dof is perfect! Well done.

Looks like hes spreading his wings to distribute his weight .
