I wouldn't call this pretty, but it has great detail, very nice lighting, and stands out nicely from the blue background.

LOL! Whatta face! That eye looks like a paper construction, amazing.... Bumping on review, SO amusing to look at. Photographically, nothing to write home about, but I'm scoring this challenge based on feelings evoked, which seems appropriate for the 1000th...

Wow, not a particularly attractive specimen, if I say so myself. But that makes it all the more interesting to photograph sometimes. Nice clear eye and good capture of the textures of the feathers and skin.
