It may be true that there are raptors around that do prey on the smaller birds but that's cycle of life. What's difficult to accept is that man, the 'thinking beings' who are supposed to look out for these creatures can turn out to be the culprits who caused the destruction of habitat and most of all, guilty of illegal hunting.
Nevertheless I was thrilled to come across this little fella again and am very happy that it still displays much wariness when it senses human presence. Its skittishness is indeed its saving grace. Its sudden appearance always adds to the initial thrill of spotting it.
And then it quickly sensed that it was not alone.
And then caution further set in, and then it's like playing hide and seek with it.
Despite blocked, its striking colours drew admiration.
Still, cautious as ever - a bird does sense it when it's being watched, as like a human being!
And it's also amusing when one is caught out too!
Gorgeous, simple gorgeous!
It looked like it knew for certain that it was spotted, then it scooted. I say, good for it!
