This post goes for 'Show me a photo (of a bird)' contest, round #153. Week's topic was 'Bird in black and white'. I should say that most of the time I prefer colour versions to B-W ones, when it comes to birding... but ofc sometimes there happen exceptions.

Some feather's photos. Not sure if they look better in B-W mode, tho.
