Yes, I should have mentioned - Purple Gallinule. I call them elusive and reclusive as they seldom come out of heavy cover for a photo opp. This is a male - the females are less colorful. Thanks for stopping by and nice comment !

Had no idea they could look so colorful? did you do anything to enhance the colors, and what kind of camera? You are a master!
