A Red Bishop

hanging around in the reeds. On my walk around the dam to get some shots of birds, I discovered to my dismay that when I shoot RAW, I do not have my full zoom! It used to go to 2400, but now only 1200. I suppose I'll just have to crop more ;-)

I like the texture of the dense short feathers, you can feel it in the image, and, of course, I like the bright orange colour.
