An adult male Cock-of-the-rock feeding on cecropia fruits.
The Cock-of-the-rock’s diet consists mainly of fruit. Often, these colorful birds do not digest the seeds of their fruity meals. Instead the seeds pass through their digestive tracks and are eventually scattered along the ground, making these birds extremely important seed dispensers. In addition to fruit, cocks-of-the-rock eat insects and small vertebrates.

Portugal - Mafra - Convento - Palacio - Basilica - Missa do Galo
Missa do Galo é o nome dado em países católicos à missa celebrada depois do jantar da Véspera de Natal que começa à meia noite de 24 para 25 de Dezembro.
Seu nome consagra a lenda segundo a qual à meia-noite do dia 24 de dezembro um galo teria cantado, anunciando a vinda do Messias. Na Missa do galo já todas as velas do Advento se encontram acesas e canta-se o cântico de Glória. Dada a sua importância, o próprio papa faz questão de rezá-la.
Tradicionalmente, depois da missa, as famílias voltam para casa, colocam a imagem do Menino Jesus no Presépio, distribuem os presentes e compartilham a Ceia de Natal. A missa do galo é celebrada, em Roma, desde o século V, na Basílica de Santa Maria Maior.

This Cock Pheasant is a regular visitor to our garden. But recently he's certainly showing signs that this is mating season and that he has undergone several rounds with other contenders. You can't quite see in this image but it looks as though he's lost a large amount of feathers from the back of his neck and the rest of his colourful plumage is looking somewhat ravaged.
Became a surreal look, forgot the attraction to the earth for the ear, coffee ,graphite, artgraf and glue. thanks for the visit have a nice sunday.

An entertaining mornings walk with Gus, a cocker spaniel, and the pack .. all I can say is hat's off to anyone who owns (and manages!) a spaniel! Auntie Elk was in her element as she doesn't quite like the randomness of how a spaniel seems to behave, thinking Gus was, perhaps, going to attack her at some part during the proceedings ... so took every opportunity to consolidate he top dog position over Gus by baring teeth and giving chase at every opportunity .... Gus was in a world of his own thankfully so they didn't engage in top trumps! When we arrived back at the car, my lot were still a pristine black and white (they purposely avoid unescessary mud and puddles) whilst Gus was shall we say wet, muddy and had ears full of burrs!!
Cocked Hat rock sits off the edge of Broken Head. It is one of the 3 Sisters rocks which are referred to in the local Dreamtime story.
Couldn't help but think this looked like a giant octopus breaking the surface - does anyone else see it?
For this one I wanted to do a long exposure. The sun was already up, but the heavy grey skies kept the light low. They also made the sky uninteresting though. To add some interest I have added some textures taken from the rocks around broken head.
These wrens are known for having their tails cocked, but in a larger sense they feel like cocked guns when you see them in the field. When their tails bend back over their head and they lean forward you know they're about to shoot off to another perch.

Turkey .... Meleagris gallopavo
This lovely red headed turkey cock was trying to impress the hens while I was photographing him.
A turkey's throat and head can change colour according to its levels of stress or excitement.
Turkeys make a gobble, gobble sound to try and attract hen's.
Photographed recently at Avon Valley Nature Reserve, Saltford near Bristol.
Yes it's a mirror image! There was only one cock. If you look carefully - the a tribal-looking face, neck and shoulders have appeared in the pattern of the dust below between the two cocks! Weird when that kind of thing happens.
