Could you have caught it in a better pose Niels? I think not guy.

This is a beautiful and brilliant closeup!

He's beautiful Niels.... I'm so pleased to hear that he is no longer a pet.

That's a super picture yo've taken of him my friend... just wondering why he isn't the main image in The Opus?
 
A wonderful study of this lovely parakeet, Niels.
