  1. Gorgeous detail, but a bit underexposed if you ask me? Posted 10 years ago
  2. You're right it is a little underexposed. Can I delete and repost? I think it was an eye problem :) Posted 10 years ago

The grey go-away-bird is a southern African bird of uniform grey with black beak and strikingly pink gape. It is widespread in savanna woodland, a clumsy flier though extremely agile in clambering through tree crowns. It has a distinctive loud alarm call "quare", fancifully sounding like "go away". The crest is raised when excited.
