Morning Caldian and thanks for taking the time to taking the time to look in I appreciate it.Glad you liked them.These photos where taken at Martin mere wetlands wildlife trust Caldian and aren't indigenous to the British isles.They where introduced to this country in Victorian times and over the years from China and other otherAsian countries, some have been escapees from zoos and the like and over the years they have been breeding in the wild in certain parts of the country making a plus for us because they are a beautiful bird to photograph.

In my ever-so-humble opinion, that third one would be good on the wall.
