I was on a pie run to Wikieup, Az. There's a place called Luchia's that has the best pecan pie I've ever had. They also have some birds roaming around.

This pic was taken with my 30D with the 28-135 lens. I was using one of the idiot settings since I really had no plan on getting any interesting pics. This guy just happened to display his plumage at the perfect time.

Amazing birds. And they can fly with all that stuff attached. :)

I'll arm wrestle you for a piece of that pie? ;)

Thanks SZ.

Canonloader, the pecan pie is the best. It's at a place called Luchias in Wikieup, Az. Worth the 80 mile ride there and the 125 mile ride home via the twisty route. :D

Kahja posted up a couple of different shots of a peacock in another thread, which made me decide to post one similar.
