Bird Show Pics and New Additions

Post by Lt. Dan » Sat May 10, 2014 11:15 pm

I went to our local bird show today which was very small and 90% hook bill, but I was able to get a great deal on a pair of Owl Finches. Having my camera in hand I was able to get some cool pics of the birds there, mostly parrots though. I really like parrots such as macaws, conures, and greys but just don't have the means to keep those kinds of birds. The first pic is of my new Owls followed by a group of baby Owls that were being hand fed due to an abandoned nest. All the other pics are just random bird shots.
