    Now that's a pretty bird;) Love the narrow depth of field here, given the fuzziness of the tree and branch. Posted 12 years ago, modified 12 years ago

The Bearded Barbet

The Bearded Barbet is an African barbet. Barbets and toucans are a group of near passerine birds with a worldwide tropical distribution. The barbets get their name from the bristles which fringe their heavy bills.
