In life as in dance: grace glides on blistered feet.

Jimbob- I see Owd Bob has a similar thought.
A good capture at the zoo. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
Some great thoughts in the comments above and they concern parrots. Jim, do you know what kind of bird this is. It certainly is unusal.
Here is my contribution to the parrot theme:

Nice profile. Not much beautiful bird, but very interesting. Good capture, Jim.

JimBob, I am not sure I agree with the "handsome" part, but he is colorful and unusual. A Great shot. He is so strange - even his feet seem strange. Are You certain he is real? Did he move?

Personally, Jim, I liked the head shot a little better; but this is one beautiful bird. You did a great job toning down the background. Very good composition except that I wish you hadn't chopped off his tail feathers. Once again you get an A+ for clarity and focus.

"George. George. George. It's Michael Dorsey, okay? Your favorite client. How are you? Last job you got me was a tomato."
Very nice shot Jim! The bird certainly has plenty of color. I think he is rather cute myself:)

The most precious jewel you'll ever have around your neck are the arms of your children♥
A face only a mother would love JimboB and she would have to be blind in one eye and can't see out of the other.
The old Navy Chief finally retired and got that chicken ranch he always wanted. He took
with him his life-long pet parrot.
First morning at 0430, the parrot squawked loudly and said, “Reveille, Reveille. Up all
hands. Heave out and trice up. The smoking lamp is lighted, now Reveille.”
The old chief told the parrot, “We are no longer in the Navy. Go back to sleep.”
The next morning, the parrot did the same thing. Chief told the parrot, “If you keep this up, I'll put you out in the chicken pen.”
Again the parrot did it, and true to his word, the Chief put the parrot in the chicken pen.
About 0630 the next morning, the Chief was awakened by one heck of a ruckus in the chicken pen. He went out to see what was the matter. The parrot had about 40 white chickens at attention in formation, and on the ground laid 3 bruised and beaten brown chickens. The parrot was saying, “When I say fall out in dress whites, I don't
mean Khakis!”

This bird makes me laugh whenever I see him :) Nice shot of him up on the tree deeply engrossed in whatever he is thinking! Do birds think?
