Hi folks ... nothing exciting in terms of action or BIF and even shot in harsh African late morning light , but the plumage is quite interesting with all the patterns and not to forget the color head , IMHO .
These guys are funny creatures on all counts ... mostly noisy .

Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous postings
I don't mind the harsh light as you call it; bird cracks in the light surrounds. Excellent exposure and detail - love the legs! The bird is so interesting that the shadowed leg hardly matters. Really like the crop/composition.
