  Oh, what a lovely bird, Mary. Yours?
A beautiful portrait with wonderful colors indeed.
I'm trying to figure out the title, but I can't!

  Hi, Kiki! Thanks for stopping by. I was in a pet store when I took this photo. I doubt this bird would last an hour under the same roof as Riley... :/
As for the title, in America, people who are overweight and/or out of shape might eventually reach a point where they say, "It's time to hit (visit) the gym!"

  LOL at your title Mary. That is so funny as it is one little pump bird. Even with the extra weight it is one pretty bird. I love its colors and look. Wish we had some of them around here. Beautifully composed with lovely details and I love the lighting to my friend. Take care.

  What a great COMP! Heave-ho, heave-ho! How many reps now? Heehee...

What does he exercise to? "Sweatin' to the Birdies?" HeeHee...

I never liked that VHS title "Sweating To The Oldies." It made me realize that it's slightly possible that I am not a kid anymore. Whaaaaaaaaa!

Love your birdie, Mare. I bet he sold fast!

  Hi, Pom! Glad you like the pudgy one. Thanks for commenting on him/her.
I never liked that VHS title, either ~ but more because of its first word than its last! :-D

  Adorable bird. Looking like it might be nesting time. Or no flying time at the pet store who overfeeds! Great detail! Maybe both!

  Thanks for commenting, Phyllis! I think you're right about the nesting time, as well as the overfeeding in cages filled with far too many finches of various types.
