Thanks, Hal, it was a lucky shot.

A very fine image Elaine.
Certainly a very handsome bird.

Many thanks Terry and Michael. The crested pidgeon is relatively common around here. I snapped this shot in the carpark after a beach walk. I had never noticed the bright colours on its wings before so I thought I'd share it with you.

Fascinating image. Must be a local favorite, not one who finds her way up here...

Wow, Elaine! What a beauty! Great image.
