Lovely shot but that's not angry.
This is.
It's known locally as ASBO and his killed numerous birds including this blue tit

A quail hopping along the fence, it had 3 friends as well but they were gone by the time I got the camera out.

There's a villa in Milan that has flamingos in the garden. The Villa Invernizzi if anyone is visiting the city..

Interesting rather than amazing, but a blue tit snapped whilst directly overhead. Luckily it didn't do what I might have, if the roles were reversed (whilst thinking, holy crap a blue tit with a camera)... Cropped quite a lot, but I really like the definition and translucence of the wings against the sky.
