A good one of the "Captain" with clear details and a nice green background provided my the palm leaves. He should be sitting on the captain's shoulder :)

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
It looks like Captain Al is about to share some of life's secrets with you, Lyn. The lighting challenges in photographing these birds are great - they like the shadows of the canopy of trees, with bright lighting beyond. You tamed the lighting quite nicely here.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
You can tell Captain Al is in charge LE.
I like the over the shoulder look. If they have shoulders that is.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Referring to Raj's comment above, think however that Al isn't a suitable candidate sitting on Raj's or mine shoulders. Not because Al wouldn't have the specific properties, but simply because Raj and I weren't pirate captains, ☺ .
Wonderful one again, Lyn!
Wonderful one again, Lyn!

I'm only guessing his breed is a macaw? If so, they are very intelligent birds, "considered to be among the most intelligent of all birds and also one of the most affectionate--it is believed they are sensitive to human emotions", according to a study of parrots at Texas A&M University. Many parrots have near-human lifespans, and larger species like macaws and cockatoos are known to live for between 35 and 50 years. The current oldest parrot is 82-year-old Cookie, a Major Mitchell's cockatoo (Lophochroa leadbeateri) that lives at the Brookfield Zoo in Chicago. Al here is a very handsome fellow and it appears he knew exactly what you were doing.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Without being a parrot expert, I would say this is an Amazonian parrot, one of the most expensive parrot variety's. I went to a plant nursery, and the owner had one these, and I tried talking with it and it ignored me until I was just out of earshot, and it started talking. I went back up to it, and it looked at me with this "what's your problem, I didn't say anything!" this went on for a few times until I realised he was playing with me.
