Still roaming around and free

but keeps on running away when I get too close.

Beautiful bird, having a pairs of long legs.

[Chris Cook]

I'd stop short of calling it beautiful. It looks a little odd to me. Nice shot though.

[Valerie Chesney]

One of natures wonders!

[Issi Bannerman]

Excellent!

[Suzanne]

Whhat bird is it? Bush turkey?

[Susan Wakely]

Great legs.

[Kathy A]

This bird makes me laugh every time I see it

[Lou Ann]

Such unusual birds!

[Steve Chappell]

Lol, that is a very unusual looking bird

[Beryl Lloyd]

Why do I burst out laughing! so comical and far from being blessed with good looks! fav

[katy]

You are getting some remarkable photos of it. It’s so hard to believe it’s just running around and not in a zoo

[Mags]

Nice to see the whole bird. Love those legs!

[Rosie Kind]

Is this a secretary bird? I saw some in Kenya a few years ago

[Merrelyn]

It's such an interesting looking bird.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

He is impressive looking.

[Korcsog Károly]

If I am not mistaken, the photo shows a bird hunting snakes. (Sagittarius serpentarius)

[Heather]

A great shot! Such character captured here! Fav

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Goodness! the poor thing looks like it took an electrical shock! He's really something to look at. Good catch!

[LManning (Laura)]

They are the most unusual birds! Great capture.

The Secretary Birds make me laugh. I saw one at the San Diego zoo and was just amazed at how tall they are!
