Thank you so much for your nice comments on this image, everyone! It is an older but one of my favorite photos that I have taken of the parrots in the Cougar Mountain Zoo in Issaquah, WA. Some of them sit outside and wait for the visitors. They are beautiful, funny and playful, just like this one from the photo which was playing Peek-a-boo with me.Pat Gamwell November 21, 2005
