michaellinder 16,612 Posted February 28, 2021 Pierre said it, Giangiorgio - "pure perfection." You captured the essence of this amazing creature. If the eye is the window to the soul, then it follows unmistakably that this bird has one. Although it's usually said that the human eye goes to the brightest area in the person's field of vision, my eye is drawn by an ineffable force to the bird's eye with its interesting structure and its color. - - My best always, michael - - Ciao!!
