CommentI entered this image to showcase the interesting colours of this much maligned species.
The cocoa-brown body feathers and the glossy black head feathers are topped off with the brilliant yellow of the facial skin, beak and legs. What also interested me in this image was the way your attention is drawn straight to the birds eye. The ring of white spots around the birds iris seems to grab your attention instantly.
