Such a colourful bird. The take-off pose with the water splash looks great. A further higher ISO and a faster shutter speed would have helped to get more details in the take-off pose. Is it a feather(?) in its beak? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for he observation madam....yes its feather in his beak......Quote:
