Jack and Poppy are excited to announce October's POTM Contest! The theme is Trick or Treat! We encourage everyone to enter this month! If your parrot doesn't mind wearing a costume, by all means dress your little trick or treaters up for a photo shoot. If your parrot prefers to wear feathers only there's still every reason to enter, you may use props or even photoshop your pics this month, be creative, use your imagination, the choice is yours (your parrot's). Please keep safety in mind during photoshoots and wardrobe changes. :)

*Just For Fun* photos are always welcome but please designate a single photo as your official entry. Poppy doesn't want any pet to feel left out at Halloween so she is inviting all family pets to enter a *Just For Fun* pic!
**Predators and prey in the same photo will not be posted. Thank you for understanding.

Enjoy the contest!

The contest will remain open thru October 28, polls will be open from October 29 thru October 31, the winner will be announced on November 1. The winner will receive a one year Supporting membership and the winning photo will be on our home page thru the month of November.

*We recommend using Imgur, ParrotForums, or a hosting site of your choice as photos uploaded from Photobucket continue to disappear.

Nah RB sees himself with a crown on and above that a halo

True, that is RB's perception in the real world. In an alternate universe, he has a targeting helmet and a high energy laser pod between his feet! :D

Y'all ALL have the Rb's number, totally and completely!
It's a relief to know he's not fooling ANYBODY.

Carl, if you can make THAT little angel look scary, well... you're better than Chris Angel, dude!

Awesome theme (and example pics) for POTM, Allee! Looking forward to all of the entries, and already enjoying the first two!

And Carl_Power, who says he has to look scary? He can be the angel to RB's devil! Lol!

I was encouraged to enter so I guess here it is. This is the cheesiest thing I've ever edited and I'm mildly ashamed but also laughing like an idiot.

I'm seeing a theme here with how the parrots who've "dressed up" see themselves, reflected by their choice of Halloween costume:p I notice none of them are dressing up like doctors, police/fire birds, angels etc...:eek::16:;)
