Thanks for the comments... Funny you should mention the males being better looking... Of all the pictures I have posted, there are many cases of this. The ones that come to mind are:
Baya Weaver (males are better looking with deep yellow around their throats)
Peafowl (No contest here)
Sandgrouses
Marshall's Iora
Thanks Garen, Nello, Peter, Pancho and Tim for all your comments...Shall continue posting a few every other day or so..glad you folks are enjoying the series..
