Visited a nearby zoo this past weekend. They had a neat exhibt there, where you could walk into a free flight avairy filled with Lorikeets. These are beatiful and colorful parrots that eat necatur (sp?). You can feed them and you are literally attacked :) Here is my wife with her hands full. --Randy R

I was getting jealous of this one. My wife wanted to take him home. Something about being a better kisser!!

Ok here is one of my favorite shots (besides the birds). If you like to see more pictures click on the link. Would love your comments on the other shots also. The kids are my son and daughter (maybe you can tell them from the other creatures :) ) --Randy R

Good candid shots. Color and composition are right there. #2 is keeper for family album or maybe a contest shot.

#3 shows great personality. [Self portrait?] The birds sure look like fun.
