I went to Niagara Falls to see the festival of lights and while there visited the Bird Kingdom. What an amazing place with all kinds of birds flying free.
My first and only new bird for 2018 :) Not sure why I've not come across them before, though they stick to the big river banks most of the time. These were at the currently half full Lake Hattah and this was the clearest shot I managed. IME they like staying high when perched and fly fast when moving, so not particularly easy targets.
This is an immature bird - I believe juvenile - since it is more green than yellow, the red bars are not complete and the tail is not blackish.
RPs are close relatives (same genus) of the Superb Parrot which are threatened but quite common locally around Canberra, and the Princess Parrots that are extremely rare, stunningly beautiful and only found in the deep outback. I've seen PPs looking way less than their best in the Desert Park at Alice Springs, but never in the wild.
I came accorss this African Grey Parrot a group of street dancers kept as a pet standing on a large music box they played as part of their routine. As he scratched himself staring at my camera I closed up and captured this shot of the details, textures, and different scales of color of his feathers. He even seemed to be posing for the camera!!
Australian King Parrot at O'Reilly's Mountain Retreat in Lamington National Park. It's a female, but not sure about those grey bits.
This 15 year old parrot lives on his owner's barge - and had a special perch attached to the barge, but he wasn't tethered. The owner had had him since he was a chick; and later we saw him sitting on his owner's shoulder as they went down to the pub together. Rodley Canal, West Yorkshire, UK.
The parrot stared into my camera and then tried to eat my camera lens. But he gave me a great closeup. Bird Kingdom and Aviary, Niagara.
This is a male the females are mostly green. Photo taken at Mount Nebo, west of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
Bahama Palm Shores / Abaco Island, The Bahamas
The Bahama Amazon or Rose-throated Parrot is the only parrot found in the Bahamas and only on Abaco Island. It is a threatened Caribbean endemic, locally common in Cuba; fairly common on Great Inagua; fairly common on Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac. This is another life bird for me.
For those interested in knowing more of this parrot:
I went to check on the Tawnys this morning and they weren't on their branch today, before i headed back home i got some pictures of this King Parrot, there was a group of females in a tree but only this one was in an alright spot to photograph.
This is the largest parrot in the Pantanal with a very trusting nature. Blue-fronted parrots are excellent talkers.
This parrot lives outside of a restaurant in Seven Springs valley in a natural place with lots of trees ....he is looking at people eating and talking to the visitors.
We put a bird feeder out the front of our beach shack and the parrots come in to feed, fighting off the smaller sparrows that eventually sit on the ground. These are knows as Lincoln Parrots in South Australia and 28's in Western Australia.
I don't know if they were happy or not, but they were shouting at people :D
