    African Green Pigeon

    Such awesome birds but not the easiest to get out in the open. Fortunately I found this one nest building.

    A lovely capture of a very beautiful subject Richard. Focus is crisp on all except the far bit of the tail and the colours are superb. I think I'd take out the out-of-focus branch below the tail though.

    Hi Rich, Lovely behavioural pose with nesting material in his beak, and the colours look spot on. Great you managed to capture him in the open without those OOF leaves surrounding him.

    A pigeon I dont have in my files.
