Because of the validation requests...
Here's the shot right before the original:



here is the original :)



By the way, it didn't hurt, it was just surprising. They were incredibly forward that day. Usually you can't get them to eat from your hand, but that day, I couldn't even get focused before they grabbed it, 90% of the time!! Got nipped two times, was incredibly surprised that I actually got it in the shot!

What I find funny is the bird that is all the way to the right is thinking to himself. "They better share or I am telling mommy!" >:(

Lol!!

Jeez, that trained Polly (Polly want a cracker?) appears in lots of your photos! 2 for using trained fowl in your foto! 17 for the danger factor and 24 for the image, thus you get...(....carry the 1...plus 3). 1M!

Your animal training abilities never cease to amaze me! For sacrificing both your finger and a Ritz cracker you get a 42

An honest mistake - he was going for the cracker and that other one made an illegal over-the-back steal! Foul! Foul fowl!

Don't bite the hand that feeds you
Don't nibble on finger tips
Don't waste your time on thumbnails
It's the fast bird that gets the Ritz

She serves Ritz Crackers to the Sea Gulls, which explains the fluorescent droppings all around that neighborhood. This is, basically, beyond Monty Python. I'd be ribboning it in a FS, but I'm weird. The bathos of it moves me to score it 37.

You definitely have a magic way witch birds and beasts (read squirels) . This is a spectacular picture. Its splendid technical merit does not shadow the mood and the story.
