Buddy can voluntarily control the size of his pupils... another of the many subtle methods these magnificent birds use to communicate.

I had a Double-yellow head Amazon parrot, and I soon learned that when they are excited their pupils expand and contract quickly and their head and neck feathers fluff up. You captured it perfectly here. The lighting is nice. Voted.
