Wow! Beautiful! They almost seem like they are forming the yin and yang symbols! I love it!

@Tami, that's a stunning shot! I was going to post one of my photos but it looks so amateur after yours so I'll just put it up later haha!

Yellow Shoulder Amazon, Salty
Well this is one contest that Salty and I will not enter. He NEVER naps or sleeps during the day and even when doing his 10-15 minute pre-nite nite roosting does not close his eyes. During the day he is go-go-go all the time, and even when he chills for a few minutes his eyes are wide open ( looking for predators or a chance to swoop down on Tinker and give her a nice chomp on the ear).

Feel free to enter a pic of him wide awake but just chillin'! I included that option because my birds never have their eyes closed when we are around, either:(


Awww, I love this pic of Sweet Willow!

Just for fun!

Ember is still only a baby so he sleeps a lot! :yellow1:


Another wonderful picture of Ember:)

As you know it's an advanced parrot skill to do double scritches, abd take a picture with the other hand !

That is the exact look on my sons' faces when they are pretending to be asleep! You tell Levi he's fooling no one! Hahahahaha! Beautiful pic as always, Tami!

I might as well post it now haha!

Boomer needs wait on no one! Lol! Wow, he is REALLY getting his sleep on, here! Sweet pic! My birds are always on ten, ramped up and ready to play while on me. Short of a direct IV infusion of moonshine, I doubt I could get a pic like that!


Now that right there is a cat in a fluffy, feathered body! Lol! Pure love.

Just for fun!

Ember is still only a baby so he sleeps a lot! :yellow1:


Awwww! Sleep away, little one! That is the spirit animal representation of what I feel like doing right now. (Well... minus the head pivot aspect, perhaps.) But sadly, Dad duties abound.
