    Are those conures? They are lovely. Smaller than macaws, it seems.

    Wonderful color, detail and action! I have seen feral parakeets and parrots do the same type of behavior here in Texas and it wasn't spring. Perhaps they are sparring. mwink.gif

    Is the saturation a bit over-punched? Seems so for me. Otherwise, nice work.

    I love these birds, they were basically my first impression of Australia. Hand feeding them on my mother-in-law's back porch. Nothing like the birds in Sweden, to say the least.

    This one probably is, but reality is likely somewhere inbetween. :D
