They're bodies are lovely and their feathering is sublime. And then there's the head. They're great for keeping the tick population down.

Aw come on, they're not that bad: only slightly more frightenly ugly than the witches in the scariest fairy tales. (thanks for the kudos)

Great shot! You've really captured just how hideous their heads are.
