Oh he is enjoying that sweet treat Mary! He is beautiful, I love his red head and that blue ring around his neck. Super shooting with great dof, sharp focus, exposure and framing;)

Nice colours, I loved the bird impressions on the face, which way joining and same time protecting the food. Like the smudge background make your eyes focus on the bird and the bird activity.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


Mary, this photo is so charming. You caught this fellow in the midst of his snack and he's giving you that "can I help you with something" look in his eye.

Pin sharp, his head and eye catch our attention instantly and of course the whole colour harmony of the image is supportive of each other. The red head, the red pomegranite, the reddish hues on his body. I like the dof you used and blurred that background yet still we see his environment and I'm thrilled not to see a cage!

Your point of view, shooting from above and looking down gives him that fragile humble feel....a feeling that we need to protect him and best of all he has posed for you, caught your eye and that way we too connect with the beauty of life around us....all thanks to your photo technique.

Nice photograph. Love the vivid colors in the parrot. Very well focused. Eyes are sharp and the details standout in the pomegranite. Nice crop and good DOF. Very well done!

A colorful look at the mealtime for this parrot. Sharp focus, framed and good exposure. Good job to show the colorful coat of feathers.

What a gorgeous bird! One I've not seen before that I remember. What a beautiful red head with blue collar. He does look to be enjoying that pomegranate alright. Nice shot of this bird Mary. Very sharp eye in the middle of all those red feathers. Good photo!
