    Nice shot almost makes me want to stop calling Pigeons rats of the sky.

    Nice capture. Looks like it was a little tricky sneaking up on the little bugger.

    Thanks folks. Not too hard to sneak up on but he was in a difficult position in the tree for me to frame him in. It's not a great shot but I'd never seen such a colourful pigeon before.

    That's my opinion of them too.

    Quite interesting, indeed MA. Lol, it just looks like a colourful rat to me, now.
