Bird Man




We went for our walk to Paper Goods Pond, and there was this dude with his two parrots. The larger one is an African grey; I can't remember what the smaller one is. He let the larger one climb onto my finger. It was a completely unexpected experience. Processing done in TiltShift Generator.

  2. What a cool surprise. Does he carry that perch around? I love seeing the nicely named Paper Goods Pond in so many ways.

  6. I can't believe they just sat there and didn't try to get a way, they know where their food comes from LOL Very cool find!

  7. I love wild birds, but I don't like pet birds at all! Great image. I like how you got both birds so well and that he is talking to the large bird.

  8. I love the angle you used to shoot the photo and the lines of the bench in counterpoint to the direction of the man's stare.
