But if you are strange
bird in his territory,
or near his favorite
tree then that terrific
beak will get you!
He is also loud
and very talkative,
with an astonishing
variety of sounds.
And, I have seen the
other normal birds gather
around him to listen
to what he has to say.
These photos are of the
same bird in the
same 10 minutes.

The
colors on this amazing bird, shimmer like magic from olive
green, to emerald green,
to
aquamarine depending on the angle of the sun's
light. The real life display is breathtaking.
