Hi, Richard. Actually, the colors of the Jamaican flag are green, black and gold.

The only flags that come to mind when thinking red, yellow and green are Cameroon and Afghanistan. :54:

This is NOT my entry, as the photo wasn't taken by me, but I think it's the perfect photo XD

My wedge-tailed eagle, in front of the Australian flag, wolfing down a rabbit leg - what a gal.

Oh wow! Not quite the outcome we were hoping for (so far). :(

Don't we have any patriotic parrots around here? C'mon....there's gotta be some somewhere, no?

I think this was Gilbert's entry last year for something on here but I think the photo is cute. He is looking rather patriotic.

Is there any reason why we cannot post a reply on last month's POTM contest winner? The thread does not appear to be closed. I tried to add a comment but it won't let me.
