Taken at the Ka Htain festival in Hsipaw, Myanmar. The green wings of this young girls costume caught my eye as she was performing the traditional Kinnara & Kinnari bird dance with three other dancers. The Kinnari is depicted as a half-bird, half-woman creature with the head, torso, and arms of a woman and the wings, tail and feet of a swan.
