not to take anything away from ur pic,

that parrot is stressed and bored to pluck its own feathers like that, not a happy site to be honest, especialy from a zoo environment :( ,,


is it me, or is the eye and beak slightly out of focus, tho it has been a long day and i just got back from parents evening , so could just be my tired eyes,

The parrots were flying free in the zoo, not caged, so dont think it was that bad to be honest, was the only one of about 8 parrots that was in that state !

I got a couple of the others flying around and am in the process of trying to get em up here ! lol
