However, there is a question about what it actually is! (several different opinions so far) We watched the bird for 5 to 10 minutes and during that period it did not move at all other than once it turned its head so it was alive;-) Take a look at see what you think. If you click on the right hand photo on the photostream, there is a tighter crop although it really doesn't show much additional detail. I would be most interested to hear what others think this bird might be. http://www.flickr.com/photos/gailw/3808170642// Thanks!
