These birds are a touch larger than a crow, but with a very melodic song. Especially when in a group first thing in the morning. This very friendly guy was expecting food from my boys as we waited for a tour of some limestone caves at Buchan.

Thanks for sharing ... I have never seen this bird before.

I love the first shot.


Comments and crits are much appreciated.
Shoot till your finger bleeds ... it is just a moment in time and then it is gone forever.

Thanks for the comments.

Mitch: If you think he looks beautiful, you should hear their morning-song.
