A quick recce today to Anglesey, I wasn't expecting to see these beauties and was pleasantly surprised to connect with them immediately. A typically cheesy hazelnut image, but I'll be back soon to nail a few motion shots.

My thanks to "mtndust" for helping identify this plant.
From Wikipedia --
"Despite the common name, it is not a bamboo at all. It is an erect shrub growing to 2 m tall, with numerous, usually unbranched stems growing from the roots. The leaves are evergreen (sometimes deciduous in colder areas).... The young leaves in spring are brightly coloured pink to red before turning green; old leaves turn red or purple again before falling.
"The flowers are white, borne in early summer in conical clusters held well above the foliage. The fruit is a bright red berry 5-10 mm diameter, ripening in late autumn and often persisting through the winter.
"All parts of the plant are poisonous containing hydrocyanic acid, and can be fatal if ingested. The berries also contain alkaloids such as nantenine, which is used in scientific research as an antidote to MDMA. Birds are not affected by these toxins and will disperse the seeds through their droppings."

Every time we visit this zoo, I'm surprised by the intense red colours of these birds in their green environment. I still feel the camera doesn't do this red full justice. Or is it simply the photographer?
