No, I sort of look like that in the morning, so maybe he just woke up. I've heard of meyer's lemons, but not a meyer's parrot. I wonderful if they are related. He sure is pretty with those yellow patches of feathers. Wonderful shot too with a really nice background.

He does look a bit rumpled - I'm with Cindy about that's how I look too when I get up - but the shot is well done and the framing sets it off perfectly.

I have heard of Randy Meyers the pitcher JimboB. I bet this parrot is left legged. He makes you wonder why he has those particular markings. Maybe so we can tell him from Randy. Excellent work per usual.

This one must be booked in at the beauty saloon, if not he should be. A lovely clear shot with no sign of bars or glass, well done Jimbob.

Except for chopping off this poor guy's tail, this is a wonderful posting of "Meyer's Parrot". The Meyers family lives down the street from me, and this definitely is their parrot.

I think You should call this guy "Fluffy Feathers" Jim. He's a cutie and I bet he likes to cuddle on the shoulder.

I really like how the birds head is turned. It seems he is a bit shy.
