Wilpattu National Park, Sri Lanka

Burnt Violet

The Sri Lanka Junglefowl is an endemic species that is a common sight across the island nation. A stunning burnt orange plumage with dark streaks, and an iridescent, glossy black tail, junglefowls are a sight for sore eyes. This close-up photograph of its wing is a confounding play of colours, almost hypnotising, if not for a certain photobombing winged friend.
