 further to that exciting morning five days ago the king parrot(s) are now eating from my hand ..

its so difficult taking a pic when you've only got one arm to hold the camera ... being stronger would make it a lot easier ..

this is the pic from the other morning when i was excited about them feeding so close .. other ppl in the area must be feeding them as they're very tame ..
