You lookin' at me?!
Uploaded: June 18, 2006
Taken at a local safari. Used a wide aperture to 'focus out' the wires of the cage it was in. Then a bit of a crop for the maximum effect of his 'look'.

Rob, excellent detail, exposure and lighting; he's so ugly he's kind of cute. #467575Dot K. June 18, 2006

Thanks Rob and Kay! #2917218Mary C. Legg August 14, 2006
well, I can see that you're still fishing for more compliments, so you're on. It would make a great greeting card--birthday, UnBirthday, AntiValentine, All Occassion woth a Spit in the Eye kind of greeting. Love it, really I do-- great humor and candor through the beak of a bird. #3162561Rob Zuidema August 14, 2006
Well, thanks again, Mary! You have made my day! #3163889Mary C. Legg August 14, 2006
