This one stood still for a moment in Kidepo Valley National Park, Uganda.
A very aptly named bird.

A beautiful bird, Ken and that's a really cool perch with a lovely bg.

Nice job capturing this absolutely beautiful bird, Ken. You did a great job picking up the slight iridescence of the feathers. Nice pose and a very pleasing background. A superb image.
