Best viewed in original

They were in a feeding frenzy, with lots of people moving around trying to feed them by hand
making the birds flighty & nervous. Out of several attempts this was as good as I could get.

An incredibly beautiful bird. I have never seen one of these--not even in pet stores. Australias has so many beautiful birds. Thanks for sharing. Voted.

Hi Mr. Parrot! I'm impressed. We don't have them here.
Great catch, well composed. It has such beautiful colours!

We don't have these at all in Western Australia. They are stunning.

I didn't think it was real. The colors are really vibrant. Are these wild birds?

Amazing birds. Always wanted a grey, but I know that they are alot of work. And they live forever! Nice shot.

Yep, the colors are the thing but the look in his eye tells another story. Good shot.
