Thanks Lyn! They were so entertaining. There must have been about 12 of them in the tree this morning. And they were sure goin at it!
Carol Barona

Oh wow, this is so pretty. Love the green green colors.

OH BLAIR!!!!!! How ADORABLE these little darlings are!!!!!!! Soooooo cute!!!! And a perfect name for this shot as they are exactly pea-green!!!!! My mom always had what we used to call parakeets (but which are now called budgies) ... and I know how they love to chatter and talk!! We only had them one at a time, but their favorite toy was ALWAYS a mirror … it used to break my heart!!! But my mom … oh … I could tell stories you probably wouldn’t believe … but just let me say that SHE had them talking to US!!! YEP!!! Soooo cool!!! I’d sort of forgotten Frosty and Greenie and all the rest until I saw this fabulous picture of yours!!!! LOVE it!!! Thanks for sharing this one!!! Hugzzz!!!
Blair Wainman replied

Thanks so much Lois! These guys were so much fun to watch and I’m sure they said the same about me! Lol! Thanks for sharing your story! I’m glad it sparked a few memories!

This is so cute, Blair!!! I’m sure there are going to be many people favoriting it (including me!) and it’s bound to win a few challenges, too!!! They are adorable & this is a perfect capture!!!
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you Lynn! You know these birds are not common at this altitude! I’m not sure why they are around but I have seen them a couple of times now and a flock of about 12 is a good indication that they may stick around! That will be great for me! It took quite a while to lock on to these guys as their color just blends in so well! Thanks so much too for the favorite!
Sandy Stewart

Lovely capture of the two Parrots interacting with one another! The shades of greens contrasting against the blue sky is lovely! :)
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you Sandy! I always appreciate your comments!
Cheryl Lunde

Wonderful capture, and yes, I agree with Sandy, the contrast with the blue and green is striking!
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you Cheryl! Much appreciated!

Aaaaw, nice! What a great find and the colours are so bright and cheerful!
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you so much Johanne!
Teresa Zieba

Wow Blair I love this shot. Adorable little birdies. I like that the shot is all in different shades of green against the blue sky. Nice contrast.
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you Teresa! It was a challenge to find these guys amongst all the green never mind get them with some contrasting blue sky. I’m glad it worked out! i appreciate your comments!

EXCUSE US….COULD WE HAVE A FEW MOMENTS ALONE PLEASE!!!!
Blair Wainman replied

Lol! Good one, Diane! One could invent a lot of things they might be thinking and saying!
Lisa Hewitt

What a sweet moment between them! You were so lucky to be able to capture this shot!! Fantastic!
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you Lisa! It was a great moment this morning as these guys are not habitual residents of this area…normally they are found in warmer climates and lower altitudes.

This is fabulous Blair!!! I love everything about it and it`s a fav for me!!!
Blair Wainman replied

Thank you Deb! Thanks so much for your kind words and the fav! I’m glad you liked it!

These guys are so cute Blair. I believe they are what we called Bee Bee Parrots in the pet trade and were very popular as pets for a time. It is much nicer to see them in the wild as nature intended. Fabulous capture!
