Squawk

The parrots paid a visit to our seed-pod-laden tree today. Messmakers. They're actually quite bashful if you get too close. And they're so funny with one another. Talk about personality! They're such social creatures, and yet they're such cantankerous old men!

I had to crop the hell out of these, and my 70mm lens isn't cutting it for my needs, and the lighting blows since it was coming on dusk...but you'll get the idea. Wild green parrots, in the cities of SoCal. Who'd'a thought?

Have you seen "The Parrots of Telegraph Hill"? A great documentary. I highly recommend it.
