Hello feathered friends

When a good friend saw this bird. She told me that she love this bird. :)
Thats why i tried my best to make sure to photograph it everytime i had a chance to see it at the park where i shoot.

it's name my guess came from the bird calls it produced. it really sounded like a coppersmith hitting a copper on an anvil. pok...pok...pok.. :)
