Brilliant!

I love the last one. Looks like he's saying "Do I know you?"

And once again BigPix, you're getting some great color.

I like the same photo phenn likes, what I like especially is the color of the leaves.

Hi big pix,

Amazing color. Beautiful shots!

I used to spend a lot of time drawing animals in Illustrator. For some reason, I feel a special bond with this bird. Wonder why?
