    Howdy, Y'all. I just discovered this site and joined right up. Here's a shot from the central part of Texas of a native but reclusive bird. I had never seen one before and nearly fell over when he came in close.

    That's a beauty John. I told you that we had a bunch of nature shooters here (second biggest forum on the Cafe).

    I look forward to many more.

    Hi John,
    What a great picture. I sure would be proud to have one like that on my wall. It looks like a tropical bird. Love the colors.

    Wow, great capture John! I saw one of these a couple of weeks ago on High Island but wasn't able to get a photo of it.
