I hope you both had a super birthday a while back!? :D

What a great portrait, Chris!

I can hardly even imagine a land where birds like this can fly freely and talk to people along their travels. :D

On the OTHER hand, I'd be nervous if a bunch of them landed around my pool and started saying, "Hey baby! Hey Baby!" Heehee...

Love it!

It's always nice when an animal makes regular visits to have a chat and a snack. And such a pretty/handsome visitor! I like the from-below pov in this shot, Chris. Hope you and Tony thoroughly enjoyed your mutual birthday. #11040668

Thanks so much Laura & Mary. They are nice to look at but you wouldn't want one to land on you!!! #11196628
