H. A. N. W. E. everyone!

I STILL haven't seen a hoopoe in the flesh! This one paid a visit to my window sill (I have an office desk on this side of the window) on a day spent at the hospital for tests. My sister took this shot through glass.
One day I might actually see one!!

j'ai la chance tous les ans d'en avoir plusieurs qui viennent se restaurer sur mon terrain. C'est vraiment un oiseau très agréable à voir.
Merci une fois encore de l'appréciation de ma galerie.

I know, I know, Joël!
But I still haven't seen one in the flesh! This is my sister's shot, taken on a day when I was at the hospital for tests, so missed it yet again!.
