Metallica Starling
Uploaded: July 18, 2012 23:01:03
Taken last spring at the SD zoo...while jotting down the name of the bird I had a Beavis and Buttheadian slip and wrote down 'Metallica Starling' instead of the correct name of the species, 'Metallic Starling'...go figure...

I like Metallica. He sure is looking intently at you. Guess he wants you to get his name straight! Love the vivid colors. Great shot, Robert. #10235812Jack Gaskin July 19, 2012
BLAME IT ON AGE !!! Beauty of a catch, they are impressive especially w/those eyesJack
I have thought about a 600mm but that would SERIOUSLY CUT MY BUCKET LIST TRAVEL FUND.
Be thankful the fix is that inexpensive ... #10236004
