Great idea!
Is there a specific topic to the videos or can it be anything? (I understand they have to feature our bird/s, but you know what I mean)

Nope, no topic (this time), as long as the clip is featuring your fid(s). Depending on how this goes, we may do it again WITH a specific topic in mind next time.

 

[Psittaciformes]

Sounds like fun!
If people like it enough, would it be possible to have a photo contest as well as a video contest? (Both monthly)

 

[Allee]

Woo Hoo, phenomenal idea for a contest!

Depending on the turnout - maybe. We'd have to get it approved by Admin first.

I can't wait to see the entries this month! I better stock up on popcorn

 

[Psittaciformes]

Make some extra for me, will you?

Wendy; I hope it'll be as good (or better) as it sounds, so that we can hopefully have two contest

Shauna, ROFLMAO!!! That's HILARIOUS!!!! Love it!!!

 

[dskidd]

LOLOL!!!! "Knit one...purl one...knit one...aw, to heck with it! How do I tear this thing apart?!?!"

This is just for fun...I posted this a few months ago in the Caique section.

On the day I got my iPhone6, I was goofing around with it (boys and toys, ya know). I wondered how the slo-mo video function worked. I noticed Henry keeping a vigilant watch on the backyard, so I called him over and hit "record." Not only did he come over, he landed right on the phone (presumably, he assumed it was a great new toy that I wasn't sharing).

Enjoy!

If these two videos are an indication of this month's contest, we'll need to hire a panel of judges, none of us will ever be able to choose just one video.

Shauna, I can't stop laughing at your little knitter. Adorable!

Derek, thank you for posting Henry demonstrating the beauty of flight.

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!! I'm surprised this hasn't gone viral on YouTube, Brisch!!!

 

[Terry57]

Oh my gosh, the videos so far are amazing! First Pixie trying to knit, then Henry flying oh so gracefully, and now Mya really getting down...this is going to be the hardest month ever to pick.

 

[dskidd]

On the contrary...I think Mya dances like EVERYBODY is watching!
