What a great image! The colors are fabulous, and the details are super sharp. Nice bokeh too. Is this a pet? Or a zoo specimen? Or is it a native in the wilds of Jacksonville?

This was taken at the St Augustine Animal farm.

The birds are "wild" kept in a aviary of sorts.

You can feed them sugar water and they land on your head and stuff. =).

Thanks for the kind words.

That sounds terrifying. I do not like or trust birds, but they photograph well. Nice shot.

Nice shot. As Nicole said: good colors and sharp details. Also nice composition with having the bokeh zone in the direction where the bird is looking.
