Raj, it's has chosen the wrong place to pose. Think that the back of a cow/ox would have been a better place, lol.
Very fine image. Love the difference in color between eyes and bill.
Regards, Cornelius.

His eye makeup is a hoot! That red bill really stands out too. Beautiful color and clarity on this cute little bird.

I think his momma got attacked by a penguin, Raj. Put a tuxedo on him and he could pass as one. Cool shot.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
