Excellent focus and detail on Portland's official city bird, especially on such short notice. We won't ask why a city needs an official bird...

Beautiful shot Akemi! Love the color in this and well your timing turned out to be perfect on this one! Truly beautiful! Hope you're keeping well and safe there. Thanks for sharing. Oh and about the avatar eye thing... yeah they are kinda blue to start with but a bit of it is manipulation and saturation in photoshop ;)

Woooohoooo Akemi!! I'd be SO happy just to SEE one of these birds... we do have them here but where is a mystery to me. :-) This is a beautiful shot!!! Perfectly stopped in action and that BLUE is gorgeous!!! It looks like you took it with a tripod instead of after jumping out of a car! Beautiful work! :-)
