Red Headed Parrot Finch

Post by CandoAviary » Wed Apr 15, 2009 10:14 pm

My fledgling has colored up nicely ... that was quick. He is trilling up a storm..so far 2 males and 1 :?: He didn't want his picture taken so this is what I got..... he is so funny. If you scroll fast you will kind of get the action that I was experiencing :lol:

He is beautiful. You have to be fast on the shutter to get a bird that doesn't want his picture taken. Great pics - well done!
