The Daily Bird #578.

A Crested Pigeon, from Lofty: While having lunch in a local reserve, I heard a noise like an old fashioned bicycle pump. It turned out to come from this Crested Pigeon hiding in the foliage of a nearby tree. Once spotted it jumped down to the ground and acted all innocent. Of course having heard this one, the next time I stopped at a reserve, loads of these pigeons were strutting around waving their tails at each other but I had left the camera home.
