Can be chaotic when they show up in numbers. Still, not too unattractive when you get a good look.

Joer, I agree 100%. Beautiful bird but they can eat you out of house and home. Great photo.

Stunning in download. Unless they are in ideal lighting one would never know just how colorful they can be.
I have a love/hate relation with them at this time. They just cleaned out an 8 pack of suet in 2 days.

Thanks cameranut.

They go through peanuts like crazy and bully most of the other birds.

From your comment above I guess they are very common, like our Starlings, which are a real pain at the bird feeders, they consume everything when a small flock arrives. However as an individual bird the are quite colourful with their iridescent feathers.

I really like your shot.
Did you sharpen it? I see a slight halo all around the bird.
