Got lucky with this one,the taxidermist had just finished stuffing it and when he turned away to answer his cellphone I grabbed a quick shot.

Yea, yea, yea. So the taxidermist always does his stuffing in the bird's natural habitat does he!!! Nice to se a picture with good black and white in it and yet retains the detail. By the way Les, I don't know if you have noticed but the bird has almost got out of the picture, you need stronger frames.
Respect, Roy.

Thanks Roy,this guy apparently, will stuff any bird anytime, anywhere thus the attention to detail with a natural backdrop.
I see what you mean about the bird almost getting out of the frame,with a beak like that it would possibly come in handy as tin opener and easily open two cans at a time!

Peace,Les.

Yes Les, and as all toucans know two can do it twice as fast as one can.
Respect, Roy.

Great capture of the toucan...also... both you and Manroy are funny. I think it'd be a blast to sit down and listen to you guys tell stories back and forth as only you "TOUCAN".
