Handsome Fellow or just another butt ugly Muscovie?

I bet that to a lady Muscovie he is a fine catch. ;D ;D

He is a handsome boy!

I have never been able to work out what these birds are.
I see them occasionally in suburban parks in Brisbane but they are clearly not native wildlife.
So thanks for helping me to keyword these birds.

BTW: could this image be a bit oversharpened?

I did no sharpening at all. It could be the SEP2 contrast adjustment layer but I knocked down to 60%.

Way too much contrast or whatever.



This seems a little more natural to me. Please forgive me working on your image.

No problem with the edit but this image is almost straight out of the RAW editor. Adjusted contrast only.
