Your story leaves me distressed, Peter.
The picture of this unusual Starling is so beautiful the words cannot describe it.
It would be such a pity if the world had to lose this species forever.

Hello Peter,
Indeed the name "Superb Starling" are suitable. The bird is very beautiful.
Wonderful colours and composition. Very sharp image. It's sad because the winter is knoking on the door and the birds will die.

Hi Peter,

What a sad story. Sometimes you have to wonder what in the world is wrong with people. I do hope the two recover completely and that the Starlings are found or returned. This Starling is certainly superb. A marvelous pose with the beak opened wide. The colors are magnificent and you show the face, eye and feathers is fine detail.

Wow, what a shot, Peter.
You did a fantastic job catching the metallic sheen on the feathers.
The colors are amazing.
The open beak and the bright eye really add to the visual impact.
Lovely DOF.

Hello Peter,
This is really an amazing story..I just wonder who can have the idea to steal birds. Happily these superb starlings came back. They really look special and are most beautiful with their metallic reflections. You also caught a very vivid pose. Interesting note too.
Thanks and kind regards

Hello Peter,
An excellent capture of a Superb Starling, a species that I didn't know was so rare! It's captivity in various aviaries around the world has probably the same effect as saving the Bali Starling, also a desirable booty for thieves. Avifauna is also the name of the Swedish ornitholical travel agency. and at first I thought you took a trip with them!
Nice, well composed shot of high technical standard. Thanks and I hope they catch the thieves!
Best wishes,
Ivan

Hi Peter,
a very lively and stunningly colourful presentation. Bright blue iridescent feathers standing in strong contrast to the red belly - very effective use of flash to show that much depth of coloration. Well composed image, too. The fact that the bird was taken in captivity does not show up in the image which is looking perfectly natural.
Sad story that you are telling about your bird park.
Perfect description of the species in your notes.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter
