Sunning and eating at the same time, I guess. Nice pose.

It is actually a feather which it has in its mouth. I was preening itself.

Super pose Gavin. Nothing wrong with an essential bit of preening to get the flight systems in perfect order..

Make your life spectacular!

It doesn't seem too keen on letting that feather go, Gavin. A very nice sunning/preening behaviour capture.
