Oh my goodness! such lovely birds! The Pesquet's Parrott, aka the Devil Parrott or the Vulture Parrott looks like it could tear meat off the  bones of a mighty beast! The photo of the Pheasant, just before his beak touches the water, is a remarkably timed photo. The Brown hawk in snow has beautiful coloring ... they all do. What a nice treat! Thanks Tony.
