And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it."

I don't believe I've ever heard of this bird but he is a beauty. I love the soft feathers on the neck and they way they seem to stand out and swirl. Very nice shot Jim.

It's eyes are telling me that it's begging for somewhat. Think it might have recognized you Jimbob and is expecting some food from you, lol.
Very fine image with clear details. Well done again mate.

He has a wild look in his eye Jim. Maybe he doesn't like being called a bustard!

Wonderful close-up Jim. The bird looks amazing, if not a bit startled, and the focus and composition are very good indeed. They are trying to re-introduce The Great Bustard back into Britain at the moment.

Looks very wise, that's a 'knowing eye' if ever I've seen one. Very well captured JimBob, looks like you got in close without any blur at all.
