Toofless Toilet Brush.
by Collin Baxter

Taken with the Bigma at 500mm. These birds always look like the have lost their dentures.The way the hair stands out I also think you could use their heads as a toilet brush. You could use the beak to clean under the rim.

Olympus E-520
1/640s f/9.0 at 500.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

This guy is so homely he's cute. And what superb detail! That puckered-looking beak is amazing.

I'd love to have those eyelashes.

Funny, quirky and very appealing.

You certainly nailed the focus, and the shallow DOF sets the hairs off very well.

LoL, could be a model for Max Factor eye lashes mascara.
Excellent portrait.
I'm not willing to argue with mother nature about design here :-))
