A super portrait of this lovely bird.
"Cracker? No, I was thinking of those dried apricots you're hiding behind you!" Wonderful shot Tara!
"Sure, I pooped between the bars. Whaddaya goin' to do about it?"
"Whilst you're in town, could you pop into the library and get me that novel by Julian Barnes?"
Amazing capture Tara. God bless
This is beautiful. Excellent expression caught and the colors here are amazing.
"How many times do I have to tell you? Bring the bloody Hasselblad when you shoot my image"
Great shot - intense color, sharp detail & a dramatic crop. He does seem to have an attitude & it seems kind of cruel & sinister to me. The thing that popped into my mind was that classic moment from Goldfinger when James Bond asks "You expect me to talk?" & Goldfinger responds "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die."...
Zoom is a must here!! Beautiful parrot and great details in zoom view!
What a charming face and wonderful colors and clarity :-) Yes, even better in zoom :)
"I prefer the garlic & herb ones you can load up with peanut butter, and can you add just a touch of Grey Poupon, please?" :-P Quite obviously a well-heeled bird with a taste for the unusual..... And a beautiful profile... "This is my best side.." A lovely shot of this beauty, Tara!
Well, there is the classic "Polly wants a cracker, NOW!!" Brilliant image. Beautiful markings on grumpus.
"With LeBron going to the Cavs, could you pick me up a new #6 shirt and take this old HEAT gear with you?" Love the angle and crop. None of these guys shaped up this well for me:( Zoom is superb.
Ah, ah, love the expression :)
What a great capture!
Zoom really is amazing; I don't know which one of the denizens this fellow is, but he has a really playful look in his eye. I love how they are so anxious to interact with visitors, it makes it really fun to see them.
Wonderful capture
very good micro
Gorgeous capture! I love the way the light is highlighting the orange on its breast. Excellent work! (As to the black floppy hat and red shirt photo, you DO stand out - LOL - but not, I think, if in reality the rest of the world was not black-and-white. :)
Beautiful shot of a Macaw.. Excellently captured Tara.. Rob
