 LOL! I took this at the aquarium. I have a few bird shots from here. The problem is, none of them are identified anywhere, so I don't know what they are. They are in the same giant room with the hippos, and I believe they are all African birds.

I'll go with Richard's ID. Thanks!

I love the rich and vibrant colors on this bird! You captured it with great detail. I can't get over those jewel tone colors - just beautiful.

This looks a little surreal, like he is looking down on the earth. Very nice.

Beautiful bird, we have these here at the zoo.
I couldn't open the sunbird pic Richard linked but the zoo here has them listed at Gold-breasted starlings.

Well all I can say is, "yeah, it's a bird!" It's colours are so rich looking. Nice shot- I find it hard to get nice interior shots.
