July POTM Contest!


*****


This month's theme is Birdie Yoga! (Partially inspired by a certain RB post!)

*****

We've all seen our birds inexplicably settle into positions that range from amusing, to amazingly flexible, to downright freakish. Please submit a photo of your bird in his/her favorite yoga pose, along with your title for said pose. (No Photoshop this time around, please.)

*****

No more than one entry per member, though you are free to post as many related "just for fun" photos as you'd like.

*****

The winner will receive a Free One Year Premium Membership to Parrot Forums, and the winning photo will be displayed on the Home Page for the following month!

*****

Submissions will be accepted from today, July 1st through Friday, July 28th. At the conclusion of the submission period, a 3 day poll will be held to determine the winner.

*****

Good luck, everyone!!!


*Just for fun*

The "Inverse Booty Checker" AKA, "Does this stand make my butt look big?"


The "Scowling Owl"


The "Downward Facing Diva"

Love this idea! Actually have 2 tricks I've been working with Kiwi on that would be perfect for this month. Will have to see which one he's more up for a photoshoot of:p
 
Thanks, April! Looking forward to seeing what you and Kiwi have up your sleeves!

Awesome topic! Here's Boomer doing the Break Your Neck Pose...

 
Very cool! Thanks Stephen :)

Well call this one nocturnal tree pose

 
The Rb and I are profoundly honored, Moderator Anansi, for having served as your muse.

Well, I am honored... The Rb woud just try to bite you and call you a "Kirby"... his worst insult (my ol' man's name, the Rb's rival).

Looks as if the OG DOWNWARD ROOSTER may be posing anew...

The photos so far are wonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnderful!

Great idea for a POTM!
 
Sweet theme for July, Doc! Great entries already, this will be a fun contest.

Thanks to the RB for the inspiration behind July's contest.

I'm cracking up at the names folks are giving to the yoga positions.
 
Thanks, everyone!

What amazing entries we already have so far! High comedy! I can tell decision time is going to be tough. Keep those crazy poses coming, y'all!
 
Yoga is a natural for birds, given two pairs of versatile appendages! Especially when wing and leg are intertwined!
 
JUST FOR FUNS

The bird displays disdain in this "mooning"-like pose
**********

The bird pretends to contemplate the meaning of life but in reality is fantasizing about the hen who laid it.

The bird pretends to stretch while subtly making a rude gesture.

The bird perches on a yoga mat... er... yoga bowl and stares at the parront,
threatening to tell all the parront's secrets to the nosy neighbors.

Self-explanatory.
 
Kind of hard to decide, but I think my entry will be "The vibrant fruitbat":

Yoga pose: Lap stance

This is me at 4 years old with my uncle's pet in Spain.
 
Hey, I spent 4 bucks for a lap stance in Hong Kong last year.
 
Wow I'm looking forward to this

Great theme, Stephen! These pics are cracking me up.
 
Thanks, Terr! Yeah, these entries are ranging from sweet to utter hilarity! I'm loving it!
 
I have a great photo for this.
When Clicky was alive she would eat millet in a weird way.
I called it The Millet Hold.

 
Such great entries! Here's Wet Crow.
