Someone else posted a photo of this bird (someone who lives in AFRICA) and I had commented about his tail. Then I find a photo in a folder taken at the BioPark here in ABQ! Weird!)

Really, right? And I'm still wondering how he made it here to ABQ all the way from southern Africa!!! ッ

Awesome shot, I have never seen one before... Send him to Calif guess you need a wide angle lens to get him all in the shot... Very Vary nice

Yes . . . WAY off course! Another of my VB friends, who lives in South Africa, had just posted a photo of this bird. I thought it so remarkable . . . and then found this pic among my archives!

LOL! Rumor has it that after mating season is over, he loses those long tail feathers. But while he had them, flying is somewhat difficult.
