A beautiful galah cockatoo. Taken at the parrot refuge in Holland.

A Coscoroba * swan...at the parrot refuge in NL.

"Well hello there!"
Loved the color of this Major Mitchell's Cockatoo. Gorgeous bird. This one was a little shy though you can't tell that from this shot :)

See him? (or her) He's got the best spot. And it's impressive to know that he (or she) walked up there because he (or she) is unable to fly but can still get around just fine. (as you can see ;))

Who me?
(he looks a tad guilty of something, doesn't he? hehe)

Is that a look or what?!

Beautiful snowy owl, at the parrot refuge in Holland.

Cutie-pie's on a walk-about. Sometimes they like to roam. (supervised of course)

Well hello there! Not the usual angle. Thought she looked cute.

Seconds before what happens when you try to hold on to an uncooperative bird -- *chomp*!

Hehe, they look like they're in jail don't they? But no, just my keets in their "vacation cage." For some reason they "hung out" on the side like this a lot. Weird.

Well yes, he was trying to catch some Zzzzz's...until he heard that camera turn on. (or maybe he just heard me move....ut oh!)
