The Magnif Red Female and her Brown Mate

            This photo is a distorted view of the two of them.  He is actually closer to camera and she is larger than he is.  I'd forgotten I managed to get a few photos of her before she flew off, albeit from a distance.  She has quite an incredible robe of feathers, and you will see more photos of him (unfortunately at carrion).  
Anyway, they are now gone from Colonel Rose Drive and could be anywhere in a 100k radius.  I'd like to get some better photos of the magnificent red female, that's the plan now.  I've really enjoyed the encounters I had with them this time  ...  quite a close and caring relationship they have with one another.  And you will see, in the next uploads, that away from her, he is really a very handsome lad in his own right  ...  he is just overshadowed by her beauty when he is seen with her.
Clearly, when his neck feathers are down they are brown, but underneath they are also red.
