Beautifully captured subject. Nicely done. #9106646Dennis Gay December 15, 2010
G'day *CARLA*!What an interesting bird!
You are showing off its profile exceptionally well and that big white moustache is a beauty.
Lovely light, a good exposure, shrp focus and a soft creamy bokeh along with the wonderful colours make this a joy to view.

Hello Sherran, Douglas, Sabrina, Jeff and Dennis!Thank you all very much. This little fellow was unafraid and allowed me to approach very closely and then turned his head away, as if to say, "well hurry up".
Thanks,

It is exquisite! I'd be interested in knowing the species too! #9108343Carol Eade December 16, 2010
You captured this so beautifully, Carla! #9108725Carla Capra Anderson December 16, 2010
Oh Dennis, I don't know! This lovely bird was perched in a rain forest exhibit at our nearby zoo. I did not see any signage or a zoo keeper who could provide that info for me. I did a brief lookie lou on the internet (real quick, mind you) and didn't find the species. I have that on my weekend, To Do list. I'll let you know.Hi Michelle; I agree he is a beauty. Thank you.
Hi Carol; Thank you! This fellow was perched on one of the posts of a wooden bridge. Behind him was rock formations that were being covered by foliage. I set the camera hopping for this DOF. Thanks again.
