OMG – This video….. this is totally amazing, incredibly sad, depressing and utterly beautiful!!!! AND to think that this man ‘only’ started to photograph these species because his wife was very ill with cancer! I can’t get over it – everybody on this earth should be obliged to watch this short film!

Of course my country won’t allow the upload. So… in the spirit of giving, I share this video, which is probably not the same but hopefully along the same vein?

Beautiful colors around the eye. The bird doesn’t know how lovely he/she is. Kinda like humans.
