PT CCCXLV ~ Got It!!

Wonderful theme by Benni and banner by Belita.

These three shots were taken at a visit to Tropicarium Museum of tropical Animals, Helsingborg

This bluelegged black bird caught my eye.

Good thing I caught it before it felt compelled to jump about.

The model for this mask must have been in a foul mood.

  2. Hi Anders! I don't remember to have ever seen a blue legged bird like that..love the composition in the second and the third shot reminds me of the typical African handicrafts...

    1. Thanks Belita - indeed it was a novelty for me too. They had a little exhibit with African art in corner of the museum.

  3. Hi Anders! What an incredible black bird you have there. I love your lemur and the background. They are hard to catch in a shot. Great photo of the mask and a truly foul mood.

  4. Hi Anders!! Good shots for Benni's theme. Cool bird in the first shot....I believe it is a tropical variety of Quail. Nice shot of the lemur. Terrific African mask.....I used to have one very similar to that, that a relative bought back from Africa for me.

  5. Very unique your blue legged bird. The second photo is a good catch and the mask does look quite threatening.
