Description

I stopped a large store to buy some food and when I came out, I saw many pigeons near my car looking for food in the grass.as I got closer I thought I was seeing a green pigeon but on further looking I realized it was a parrot like bird.I grabbed my camera and started shooting but they kept walking farther from me with each of my steps.I was not able to get good quality captures, then something spooked the pigeons and all flew away there is a colony of the birds living near a local lake.I see them flying over sometimes.first time to see on the ground.the bottom two are the same bird I hope you enjoy them never the less and thanks for looking and any comments

Wow you know some one is looking for that bird.I had a African ring neck and I would leave him out of his cage and someone left our door open one night and he flew away.They did not know there was no screen on the bottom of the screen door.This is like a one in a million shot.Excellent

Wonderful shots, Richard. Could look a little like cockatiels... They are pretty for sure. They don't look like wildlife birds at all. A bit like a small parrot to have in a cage or in an aviary.

That is a handsome little bird, he looks really plump and healthy--I had to laugh at the green pigeon--I would have thought the same thing!

Terrific captures Richard and very cute little guy. There used to be a lot of green parrots in South Florida when I lived there - haven't seen any here in Orlando so far.
