Fancy Hat | February 7, 2010


A small flock of these beautiful and unique Spinifex Pigeons was wandering around one of the Kings Canyon rest areas, and I was quite lucky to snap some close-ups of them. Their erect crests and red eye masks are very stunning.

    Those are beautiful birds–I wouldn’t have guessed they were pigeons.

    Thanks to both of you! Australia is home to many, many unique creatures big and small.
