Nice sharp detail and lovely close up and very good composition and a first for me as we don't get this bird in the UK .Love the light in this little fellows eye and the sunlight in the back of this photo too.
i always wondered why the name, seems like it should've been given to the parrot or cockatoo..things that make ya go huuummm! love the back ground melt. good shot of this little guy as well.
Your fine image and funny narrative did remember me to this song. I suppose you don't know this song, Marsha, as it was released in the time you wasn't probably born, lol. Thanks however for this fine posting.
