King Parrot 3

[Alan]

Sorry for another King Parrot photo so close to the others, but I thought this was an interesting example of a male almost in full colour.

Keep 'em coming I say.

The blurry foot catches my eye in #1 but only a minor niggle and it's time to wield the chainsaw on that green blob.

Beautiful images.

Thanks Mick. I quite like the OOF bits though .... Just looked a bit stark without some foreground I thought.

The green things are in pots so I can move them

Thanks for your thoughts

Cheers

Never tire of your bird shots Alan and he is beautiful. Nice to see one with the splotches of colour coming through.

Thanks Gabby - nice to see you back

Doing well at that shutter speed. In the first the head doesn't quite have the detail of the tail. Why do birds move just when the shutter is activated.
The secound would be my favorite all up. Think the bird is shown of well.
FWIW, it takes three years for the males to develop that full red head.

Thanks Mark - the shutter speed was cutting it a bit fine for sure
