Happy Birthday, Barbara
Uploaded: December 28, 2009
I thought Barbara might like this one to add to her collection of birds. Each morning this King Parrot looks in the bedroom window & calls out for breakfast. I put a heap of seeds on the step & as they are eatten the empty husks are put on the other side, very neat eh!! Lens aperture F/2.8, shutter speed 1/60sec, focal length 6mm, ISO 140.

I love the King Parrots Chris, you certainly have a well trained bird in this one!! We don't see as many around our way as we would like, but the camera is rushed out when one appears! Excellent!Phil #1220521

Thank you so much Chris for this beauty! Wonderful image! #8252323Michelle Alton December 29, 2009
A perfect way to honor Barbara, Chris. Gosh...we have squirrels that come for a meal, but having a King Parrot come a-visiting...that would be absolute heaven! #8252777Graham Robards December 29, 2009

beautiful capture! #8254462Ann Coates December 29, 2009
Excellent capture of this very pretty parrot. We have two ducks that come and visit us daily. They are so funny. They waddle over to our back door and wait until we come out with bread. Very nice birthday present for Barbara. #8254825Graham Robards December 29, 2009

I'll be there, just a little late, I've been collecting items to photograph..... #8343629Carolyn J. Connolly April 08, 2010
These birds REALLY are spectacular, Chris...and as Phil said, sadly we don't get to see them often enough in our yard!! You and Tony seem to have the knack when it comes to 'taming' your local birds!! This was a superbly captured King Parrot portrait, my friend, so well done!! :o) #8518975Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
