Parrot Pics

Back by request... ;) (Thanks for the inspiration!)

Here are some parrot pics. 


I'd been trying to coax Athie out of her cage all evening to come take pics... She'd have none of it. Until I brought out hibiscus. Then she stormed out of the cage, leaped onto the sofa, and then leaped again onto the hibiscus, tumbling Sophia off in the process. Poor Soph! Then Athie shredded the flower. Funny enough, Ath's pics turned out the best.

(This isn't her feather--it's one I bought. She looks like she's checking to make sure!)

Parrot feet and flowers... My favorite combo.

When Athie knocked Soph off of the basket, Sophia scrambled up onto the tripod... It was so funny I snapped a shot of her (above), and then decided to see what would become of it all with the white background...

The white background doesn't work as well for Soph as it does for Ath. I need to find a different color I think. Ah well... There's my pen-faced Sophie girl!

Those are amazing pictures, of COURSE.


BTW, I need to talk to you sometime. Something happened today, and I don't know what to do...

Those pictures are adorable! It makes me miss my birds. I have a Goffin's and a Grey too.

Yes and we just got Gabby (the grey) and I haven't had much time to spend time with her.

Aww. When will you be seeing them again?

I'm not sure. I never go home anymore now that I have an apartment down here.

Those pictures turned out beautifully. It always amazes me how much of their personalities you capture your photos!

Thanks for sharing!!!
