That's a gorgeous picture of this interesting bird, Peter. The bird's head is turned, so the dorsal POV gives us the best of its plumage and face.
Thanks for sharing this prize picture.

Ciao Peter.
Eccezionali dettagli e splendidi colori che sei riuscito ha catturare in questa stupenda foto grande la nitidezza bravo.
Ti auguro una buona domenica ciao Marco.
Peter:
A very nice portrait of this unusual bird, which avoids revealing any hint of its captive state. However, the species is the Blue-winged Kookaburra, Dacelo leachii, not D. novaeguineae. It is a constant source of irritation to me when zoos, which claim to be educational establishments, mis-label their animals. Very striking bird, though and colour, sharpness and depth of field all look perfect.
Best wishes, Nigel.

Hello Peter,
Outstanding presentation of this unique looking bird. I have only seen them in nature shows on TV., so this is a thrill to see one so close up. They have quite interesting features and beautiful colors. Their head and bills seem a little too large for their bodies. Excellent detail, exposure and exceptional quality!!

Hi Peter
The Branch is helping to frame the bird. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the Blue-wineg Kookaburra. It is clear and sharp. The afternoon light has a good effect on the colors. Have a nice day.

Hi Peter,
Seeing this bird for the first time. Even though I have heard of it from the cricket accessories brand, that goes with the same name. The lower beak is somewhat different than normal KFs that I have seen. A really nice picture with piercing eyes, plumage details and shallow depth.
tfs,
Subhayan.
