Curve-billed Thrasher Portrait

Hi Folks

Caught this guy yesterday , lovely sunny morning, however, blowing up a gale. So strong, it was the first time in 20 years Gina called home to get a lift for her and her partner. Lovely torrent of rain later in the afternoon.

Help up well for a large crop.
