oh Roz..this is PERFECT. FS material! so classic and slick in your PP! I love the tones of the image, that crazy bird bumping heads with himself and your little song...
He's a sweetie Roz. I am happy to hear that he is talking already. One of my fav things that my African Grey, Sammy says is "Work Work Work.......Whew!" Be listening for Charlie to begin copying the sounds he hears a lot, like the chink of the shutter tripping.
This is actually kind of sad and touching - there are the two in the foreground, friends for life it seems, and the poor single bird in the background, alone and left out. (And yes, I know there's just the one somewhat vain bird.)
