Thank you so much for your kind words Zlatan and Sukanya. I know I was lucky it gave me a gave me a chance to photograph it.

Such a pleasing combinations of colours on the plumage and the background...such a crisp and clear series of shots. Very obliging of the bird...mine turn their heads away at the very moment that i press the shutter...so frustrating! Thanks for sharing.
