*******************************

This was our Contest for June, 2020...
Our poll for voting will run from the 28th through the 30th, with the winner to be announced on July 1.

*******************************​

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?

Dyer1125 and Squiggy
Squiggy digging into his chop cube, straight out of the freezer, after we enjoyed a couple hours out back on the deck in the warm weather. He wouldn't even let me thaw it out before diving in, LOL. Nothing like a veggie-popcicle I guess.

tfw and Kass
Working from home and having to do video conferencing is tricky these days when you have a squawking macaw trying to entertain themselves LOL. We found that she loves chopsticks. We have plenty. So today I decided to give her a banana kebob, with just a tiny bit of peanut butter (a very rare treat for her).

Here he is, trying to look innocent, failing miserably, "Watermelon, what watermelon??"

Her Royal Highness Lilly Pilly decrees to all her parrot minions to eat lots of colour in their diet. The different colour poop drives our staff crazy!
Watermelon poop is my personal favourite. Hehehe.....
