@dpm: Thank you, it does appear to be looking around for something. I was amazed how blue the sky turned out. I did not use a filter or post capture processing. Emilio

A beautifully presented image, Emilio. This is really outstanding for the colour and clarity, as well as the pose.

@Andrew Gould: Thank you Andrew, the amazing thing to me is how blue the sky came out without filter or post capture processing. Also, in spite the occasional poor reviews that my Nikkor 18-200 lens has gotten, I can get fairly sharp images.

Vikram from Chandler, United States

Well composed and sharp image!

Thank you for your very nice comments. I have checked with a good friend that knows all about birds and the best we can come out with is that it belongs to Thrush family. If you know and can help us, it would be great.
