I caught this bird wading at Twycross zoo the other week but do not know what it is called, and didnt see an information board about it too. So if any of you out there have an idea, it would be nice to know!

I have no Idea Ann. Never seen one of these Before. I'd say ask Tick maybe he knows, but he's sort of in a Bird Bind right now. Looks like some type of Duck, (Oh, Oh, Sorry Tick) or Goose.
Beautiful Color and Sharp Detail on this Unknown. The branches Frame it Nicely. Good Post.

Surely goose, but what kind? Very nice, sharp image. Ohaio gozaimasu. Good morning, Ann.

Was watching Wikipedia but couldn't find a similar one. Think it's a non European goose. Very nice image anyhow.

Q. Ann, you have a winner with this one. Fantastic clarity and detail in the Wader. I love how you framed it inside of branches. The colors are so unusal, too.

Looks like Jungle George might have struck here, as this reminds me of a cross between a goose and a zebra. Sorry I can't help you out here, but I am certainly enjoying the image.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

I call it beautiful. We lost power the last time I looked at this. KOW. I hope this "Well done" makes it your way, this time.

Wonderful shot. I don't know what kind of duck, goose or other fowl it is, but I like it's colors.
