Thanks!
I'm updating that page later - got a load more shots yesterday. It's like a moorhen's uglier, US Marine brother.

I have a soft spot for moorhens :)
And this one: www.tonykeenebirds.co.uk/abirds/australianpelican_files/australian_pelican_3.jpg is amazing! Looks like it's been messed about in photoshop, but I'm sure you wouldn't do that, so the bird really looks like that O_O

I brought the saturation up by 10 points in Paint.NET
as the Kodak P850 is a bit dull. I have to do that on all my pictures to give them something of the colour the birds actually have. Can't wait to get a DSLR...

Biggest bill of any bird.
I once toyed with the idea of a slightly alternative version of my site, with things like:
Canada Goose Branta canadensis
F***ing annoying, honking pile of meat. Happily shoot the bastards if I could get away with it.
Feral Pigeon Columba livia domestica
Thick as pigshit. Their droppings in London are thicker than pigshit.
