These little fellas are everywhere around our town on Maui. You can hear them screeching from a quarter mile away, and they fly past my house every morning. My goal is to capture one in flight, but I'll tell ya', they're like little fighter jets. For now, here's one chilling out, NOT flying like an F-22 Raptor.

    Delightful shots of this gorgeous parrot. The first shot is especially wonderful.

    First one is delightful! Something strange going on with the leaves in bokeh in second one....

    Thanks fellas! I couldn't quite figure out what I didn't love about image #2, Taz, but you helped identify it. The leaves of the palm in the background are just too darned distracting!
