Hi there,

Beautiful uploads are already in it, Costa and Christo.
And 'wow', what stunning colors, Costa.
Plus such great glow on your feathers, Christo.

 
btw, I just find this new challenge-theme.

And 'Yes', this is definitely worth it Clive!  
 
But, I've still all those people(-pictures) in my stomach.  
 
Oh, I will drop them down somewhere. LOL!

Do have a lovely Sunday, nice people here!

Here is one of the ladies. Taken just before he arrived. The ladies were trying hide when he came.  But they were all over the garden in bushes and under branches. It was really funny to see.

What a wonderful challenge to look at all the spectacular colors, so far.

I love your topics; so very interesting and surprising they are, Costa, Carin and Helle!


Now it's my turn to put some feathers around here:

A turkey and a peacock.  
  
It was hard to choose, the day before yesterday I caught many feathers ;-).  
I also witnessed a chicken fight, but that later.
