ohhhh, isn't he gorgeous. I think he knows it too. Wouldn't want to argue with that beak. Can I come with you next time you go to Boyette's Grove??? :D. I didn't get to doing the promised e-mail. Tomorrow for sure.

@Marion: Sorry, I didn't have access to my computer until too late last night.
Yes, I agree ... he is definitely gorgeous, but he has a mean streak so I wasn't tempted to touch him as I had been with Anna. ;D

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan

Like a pirate!!! You can see in that eye that this one is mean! You did capture its character!

@Japanalia: Thanks, Gabriela.
He's a very colorful "pirate" at that, and surely not one to be trusted with a bare finger, that's for sure!

Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States

What a looker he is. But I've heard these kind are not always too cuddly.

@Viewfinder: A "looker" yes, but cuddly, NO - at least that's true with this one! ;D

Mandy Provan from Johannesburg, South Africa

Very Handsome indeed Judy - a lovely capture of a magnificent bird, I've always loved them, their colours are fantastic. My piano teacher has a blue one - he's just as gorgeous!!

@Mandy Provan: I hope your piano teacher's bird is more friendly than this one, though.
They truly are a gorgeous species!
