Such an elegant looking bird! We had two magpies when Iw as growing up -- I had almost forgotten about them. They sure weren't as pretty as this one tho!
I left comments on your last three -- didn't realize I got so far behind!
Just something I found out today. . . did you know that when you go to edit on the blogs (our bench one is what I noticed it on) you can click on comments there and find ones you missed reading?
Your trip to Mill Mountain Zoo was certainly a fruitful one! Love the way you framed this...
ReplyDeleteIt could also be called the red eyed magpie, the eyes match the bill color.
ReplyDeleteGreat closeup - beautiful color!!!
ReplyDeleteNice close up. I don't remember ever seeing this bird before.
ReplyDeleteGreat photograph. The color just pops out at you. I don't think I have ever seen a magpie.
ReplyDeleteFantastic detail. Love the red beak.
ReplyDeleteThat is...red! Cool bird. Never seen that before!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Klaus
This bird is magnificent. Great photo! Take care.
