This bird is judging me, and I’m found lacking.

So cool. What species is this?

This bird is judging me, and I’m found lacking.

My ability to reply is lacking…I tried to reply to @Ulrich_from_Germany

It’s a Terathopius ecaudatus, in German a Gaukler.

[dnzm (Max)]

Oh, that’s fun, in Dutch this is a “bateleur”, which is also the name of one of our compute clusters (we have a thing with naming things after birds).

Was it in free nature or in a Kind of Zoo?

[Doug-Phoenix (Douglas Webb)]

I took my dog out for a walk. He found his friend.

The “friend” is a coyote I’ve mentioned elsewhere.
