RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
:60: September POTM Contest explores EMOTIONS!:angel-smi​
******************************
:smile015: Precisely how birds experience and express emotions is uncertain though it is exquisitely apparent. Humans ascribing emotions to animals is "anthropomorphism." Showcase an image or video of your bird displaying what we perceive as emotion. Examples include joy, interest, surprise, anger, disgust, guilt, shyness, jealousy. Please do not show fear as that might include dangerous and prohibited situations. Post an original or manipulated image, videos welcome if 90 seconds or less. :+o:
******************************
:17: Contest opens September 1, closes evening of September 27. A poll will be published September 28, winner announced October 1.
Guidelines and pointers:
-The winner will receive premium membership for one year, image adorns the forum welcome page during October and November.
-You may post multiple photos or videos, but please designate the official entry or "just for fun" submission.
-Limit videos to 90 seconds or less.
-Safety is paramount, always consider the welfare of your fids.
-Any questions, send me a PM for clarification! :smile008:

I knew I had the prefect picture for this month. Had to look through several archives to find it.

If this isn't the most enjoyment an Amazon face can express … I have never seen one.
