Such an intense gaze. Awesome spotting!

Thank you so much for the ID Zlatan Celebic, I love the red feathers on top of the legs, and it was too bad I could not get the tail good enough, but if I went close to it, it would have fly away....

Thank you so much, Tukup.

YES! that was one of my options...Thank so much Zlatan Celebic I will go back and check again..
