Exotic Birds




The first of today's birds is a Cassowary.  According to the Guinness Book of Records it is not just exotic it is The Most Dangerous Bird...In The World! It is also extremely difficult to keep in Zoos because apparently they are so aggressive and the keepers get hurt. This particular specimen was quite agitated and always on the move so quite tricky to get a clear shot. It's also not a very pretty bird but it is quite interesting.

The third shot is of a stunning Bali Starling which like the Cassowary it is a critically endangered species but unlike the Cassowary is both beautiful and gentle natured.
