LOL! They are such personable little birds. Bet he could be trained to snap the shutter, too!

I had exactly the same thoughts with my eclectus. I have a few pics of birds, but as yet none of my own pet bird - probably the same problem... he's not interested in posing - just wants a good scratch and would love nothing more than to hang upside down off the camera strap! Birds in the wild are great, but take away their wild inhibition and focus their intelligance in a human environment and they are simply amazing creatures. I had no idea of the extent of animal intelligence and cognitive capacity until I lived with a bird. These pictures are a great tribute to these wonderful and diverse creations.
