CommentI decided to submit this image as it is one of my best images in 2020. The bird was collecting fibres to build its nest in a frenzy. It was pecking and picking jumping around all over the place gathering strands off the ground in his beak to the point I could not see its eyes or face. Some fibres were falling off the pile you can see in the image . It did not fly away while I was shooting but decided to pose for me kindly from time to time. This is an image where I could see its eyes. You can see its agitated pose about jump away .
