June's POTM Theme is
"HELP AMERICA CELEBRATE NATIONAL
FRESH FRUIT AND VEGETABLE MONTH!"
June in our part of the world is a time of plenty in fields, farms and gardens. We all know that fresh produce is an important part of our birds' (and our own!) diets.​


Does your bird have a favorite? Is your bird messy or neat? A picky parrot or a piggy one? Do they like to share, or are they selfish?
Show us! Any bird photos concerning fresh produce is welcome (as long as it follows the established rules for safety and appropriateness).

No videos this time, please... photos only. Photoshop (or similar) editing is welcome, with or without captions!
Our contest will run through June 27th. A poll for voting will then run from the 28th through the 30th, with the winner to be announced on July 1.

The winner will receive a Supporting Membership for a year, and the victorious entry will appear on the forum home page throughout the month of July.
One official entry per person, but you can add as many Just-for-Fun entries as you want!
Please make sure to specify which one is your official entry.

Parronts, let's celebrate FRESH FRUIT AND VEGETABLE MONTH!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To kick things off, I raided The Rickeybird Scrapbook for a few choice photos illustrating the Rickeybird's love of fresh green chiles!
What will you come up with?

The Queen hath spake, y'all! Thank you, most revered Lilly P.

And thanks, LaMartina, for being the Queen's loyal mouthpiece.

C'mon, folks, Queen LP wants to see you all get busy. Don't make her come over there...

That's quite the impressive stack of peppers the RB has, there! And looks like he's ready for more!

Delicious theme for the month Ms G!

C'MON EVERYONE, LET'S GET FRESH'N'FRUITY!!!

I'm loving Lilly's enthusiasm for the month! Looks like this theme is especially close to her heart... or is that her stomach? Lol!

JFF Jacob loves corn and this time he got it all over his beak.

Looks like Jacob got started before the bell even rang on the contest! Way to get out in front, Jacob!
