Respect the Beak
Those were the first words spoken by the gracious woman allowing me into the large aviary, a sanctuary for birds no longer able to live with their owners.
During a visit to Parrots in Paradise I was filled with excitement and a bit of dread once I heard the warning.
Being encouraged to move closer...still closer to capture images of this grand beauty, I appreciated the bird's complete stillness. Only later did I learn that the beak of a parrot has the bite pressure strong enough to break the bone in your finger.
