Thanks Don. So far I am enjoying the build.
---------------------
Kingfisher - I actually have this printed and ready to go somewhere. This is a nice little model with 8 or 9 pieces. I often watch the real ones when we are out of town and have always wanted to model this with a fish in its mouth. But I need to build it "stock" first, before thinking about trying to mod it. While I am sure I can get the shape, I am very uncertain about being able to paint the all the new pieces to match. This will be, I think, beyond me.
The model is very similar to a Malachite Kingfisher - I have always struggled to get a nice pic of these but got a fairly good one last time we were out. I will dig it out and post it in the Bird Pics section as inspiration for you!
--------------------
The real Scops Owl. Yes, this is an odd little bird. I have quite a soft spot for them (as well of for all owls).
