You've really got that 400mm working for you Mark - great timing with the wings and nice angle and just the right elevation for the shot. I do like the framing as well.
Have a great Christmas.

Great timing and different to get the wings in that position. Gorgeous birds.

Lovely image Mark, the bird nice and sharp with the OOF seed heads make a nice scene.

Thanks Isac, Glenda and Brad for enjoying the photo enough to make a comment.

... Gorgeous birds.

They are a much underestimated little parrot IMHO.
Brilliant reflexes and the small noises they make to communicate to each other is wonderful.
How do I know?
After much effort, they visit me.
