Colorful bird

We saw the most unusually colored birds in Canada Place ~ Vancouver.
I'll bet that you bird photographers have never seen one quite like this!
(and I did not Photoshop or alter the birds colors in any way)

I first thought it was a real one when looking at the thumbnail. Interesting image, Stephanie.

Hard to imagine lights on this bird to color him up so I guess Cindi is right.
You got me guessing but great shot anyway.

Looks like a neon pigeon????
Guest 27-Sep-2011 09:38
oh it's a beauty, you're sure someone was not standing behind a tree and laughing and laughing, maybe he/ she had slurped something, the bird photographers are quiet too.

A most unusual composition. I love the little touch of putting your signature on the ... um ... device along with the other text. V

I don't have a clue, Stephanie. What a bizarre color pattern.

It is a rainbow warbler, or a freak of nature. Great find and capture. V
