Amazing! The coloring on that bird is amazing, and the quality of the image is tops. C'est malheureux qu'il a bouge le tete.

Haaa... yes. I saw that only when I loaded the photos on my computer...
Thanks Bob :-)

Too bad he moved his head at that split second Pierre but am glad you posted this. The color is amazing and I LOVE color. ;) I've always wanted a parrot but I think they are most beautiful and better off in their own natural settings.

Wow! Awesome shot, great colours and great composition.

Phew, this is awesome...great clarity! Did it speak Pierre? I like the movement;-)

Awesome is right, Pierre...D10F from me. And I agree with Darryl about the head movement, it gives the shot tremendous character. Kudos! :)

BAD ASS! =P I love these birds, my friend has one and it is just a trip! Great job capturing this beautiful animal.

Beautiful shot Pierre. This one is certainly an eye catcher!

Beautiful shot Pierre.

Wow ! Great capture Pierre. Beautiful.

Only in the bird world is such a wild color combination so beautiful! Great shot!

Thanks to all :-) Taken in the Paradisio park - Belgium. A very nice park where animals feel happy.
Darryl: It didn't speak (when we were there...)
Josh: what is an 'eye catcher'?
My last ducks pictures were taken at the same place.

Nice image and shot!!Well done,Pierre.

He looks like an accident in a paint factory, but the colours just add to his beauty. And the movement of his head adds life to the picture - great capture, Pierre:-)

Thanks Joost & Simon :-)

wonderful colors!

too cute!!

i'm on a tour through your gallery.. i wish i had done it before.. :) this one is absolutely amazing, the clarity is great... and the colours, i'm speechless, they are so vivid and beautiful! too bad the parrot didn't want to be photographed :( besides that, the image is wonderful! you *must* be quicker next time :)

Fantastic photo, such beautiful colours. 10 from me Thanks for sharing :)

great picture, i had one of these lorikeets as a pet ... great talker and always into mischief her name was JuicyFruit

I don't mind that he moved his head. The photo captures him doing what birds do. It is well focused and certainly a subject not to be passed up. My only suggestion would have been to try to get the whole tail into the picture. Never the less, a quite beautiful capture.

The Creator went bazerk with the ole paintbrush on this bird. Mercy. I think it fell onto a paint pallete and splashed around awhile. Beautiful. I would cloned out that little branch curling up and over the main limb. It adds confusion as whether that was part of the pigeon's foot or not. None the less, a magnificent capture from the resident expert-YOU!
