Regular visitors to our garden are the Purple Swamphens.
They particularly love to stop off on their way through our yard to have a dip in the birdbath.
In sunlight, their plumage shines with an intense blue sheen.

Another one joins in for a dip.
I just love watching the antics of these colourful birds.

Aha! I was miguidedly calling ours Morehens.
They amuse me with the flashing of their fluffy white bottom feathers.
We have a family of three on our property and I have my fingers crossed that they will drop a blue feather or two for me when it gets a bit warmer.
There's a lot of little white fluffy ones caught on the grass but none of the blue/black yet.
Happy day!

bright beaked males and the plainer female?
We have boring birds.
