Another fabulous picture Aniketa. Such pretty little birds these.

Many thanks for letting us see him.

BTW our new system relies on the Tags (the luggage label) when searching the Gallery for pictures. So as well as entering the scientific name in the relevant field, it also needs to be entered as a Tag, along with the common name and location (country at least). This is particularly important for species with many alternative names, such as this one.

Any other information you want to add to the Tags for your own use would be a bonus! I hope you can help with this. It would be such a shame if your fabulous pictures didn't get returned in searches for people to look at.
