Ruffled Feathers!

 

This dove has some seriously ruffled feathers!  He's gotten himself twisted into a knot too!  

I took a walk at the Desert Botanical Garden early Friday morning and saw this dove doing a little preening while sitting on top of a cactus.  I snapped the shot just as the bird twisted around and looked in my direction.  This is the best representation of "ruffled feathers" that I've ever seen.
