I have many birds, but this one fascinates me. I know he's not the perfect Phoenix. He is mine-a bird I raised. I just hope you don't get sick of looking at him. And.. I'm trying to learn how to take a decent picture. Moving to come out blurry. Any suggestions.

No worries! Never get tired of seeing that guy. He's beautiful.

The picture quality is typically the camera you're using. I'd try to calm him down, then get a pic.

Thank you. Big boy is pretty calm so any blurry in this is due to my shaking hands. I keep trying to brace my hand on things, but even so I find it hard to keep my hands steady. Old age.

Then your blurry photos are perfectly acceptable.

I think I figured out my camera and how to get a good shot.

Tomorrow I will take pictures of big boy.

Little boy. He is 4 months old and looks like he will turn out wonderfully.

Wow. That's a big tail for a 4 month old!!

Thank you. He does have a large tail, larger and Fuller than what the picture shows. I am quite proud of this bird. He looks to be exactly what I was hoping for. But time will tell.

Do you have Phoenix? Other breeds? I know you have the OEGB rooster.
