One of the stunning images from the BirdGuides Photo of the Year 2009 competition. Kevin Du Rose took this picture of an air-braking puffin on the Farne Islands, Northumberland, UK. The judges praised its symmetry.

I'm not sure what kind of bird this is, but he's certainly a dapper fellow.

@firefly,
The dapper guy is a hoopoe. Boids is amazing. Such variety and beauty.

Loving the mom and baby hippos. You gotta watch out for hippos. They kill more people in Africa than crocs or most other animals except for bugs, which carry disease.

@Irishk,
Roberta? That horse is a stunning revelation! Never seen such a mane. Very Happy

Irishk? I wouldn't mind being reincarnated into such a lovely bird. It would be a hell of an improvement over this current body. Love the iradescent blue feathers. Very Happy

Dem white lions look mighty fine. The little bird with the red leaves is a stunning shot. Love the capybara taking a shower. The stealth bunny has won my heart.

I don't know anything about the black horse with the light mane. I was looking for pictures of a black horse. Saw this and was hooked. What a gorgeous animal.
