Basically, kept feeding my bird pistachios so he wouldn't be so afraid of my camera, and chased him around with a macro lens. Took about 150 shots with only 3 good ones, and I like this one this one the best.

He is a Caique.

Great focus on the eye, the claw in the right corner is distracting.

Nice forus on the eye. For this challenge, I would have liked to have seen a bit more feather detail.
