Awesome Nature Pics

Christine, where did you find this? This is a rare photograph of the alectrona bird. It puffs up and spreads it's colorful feathers when Athena or FG comes near it.

ahhhh...i think you are mistaken. the bird you refer to looks like the mosley mongrel.

the alectrona bird's plumage is far more impressive, as you can tell from the picture below with an envible rear tail
