When I saw this beauty, I wondered how anyone could walk past and not admire it!
It is obviously a young adult, gorgeous and pristine - its feathers pure white and midnight-blue - simply stunning!
The Oriental Magpie Robin population in the taman is unusually large for a park and so a person does tend to take these birds for granted. But if one were to pause and observe them, one can truly track the development stages of this OMR, from chick to juvenile or sub-adult to adult.
Just a week ago, I was admiring these other sub-adults, in moulting feathers, even then these birds look superb.
