I fell in love with this bird for it's beauty and behaviour from the time I saw it for the first time. Image was made in Pingdingshan, mountainous region of Central China from a photo blind.

Great looking bird with a good look-back pose. Maybe a touch big in the frame for my tastes. What is the perch?

[Jay Shah]

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your comments. Perch, I guess, was trunk of an old tree.
