They can fly? I never knew that. Looks like this one flew into the ugly tree, head first. Very nice. :)

OMG What a portrait! Great shots! I suspect the fly about like domestic chickens which is almost more jumping than anything. Able to get a few feet at a time in the air, but mostly just walk around pecking. :)
