An endemic with a tasty snack. Excellent job Lisa, you didn't waste any time. Well done!!!
 
Wow, I love the colours in this shot, Lisa, and the way the branches create different shaped spaces. Great bonus to catch the bird, catching some grub ;). Beautiful detail through the bird's plumage as well. Superb :t:
