Oh geez, I'm so RUDE I didn't mean to ignore everyone.
Let's see, the camera is ... an Olympus, model #C-720 Ultra Zoom. My hubby found it on E-bay for less than half of what we've seen it for in stores. I have my good days and bad days with it. Greg gets mostly good pictures, while I take about 20 before I have I good one. Getting better at it as I learn the camera though.
A travelling photographer, wouldn't that be the greatest job ?? I've gotten a few good ones of my furry critters too ... and when my best friend has her baby in a few weeks, I'll see how well I do with baby pictures.
Thanks for the compliments everyone - since he molted, it's incredible how bright his colors are, I swear to you I didn't enhance his colors in that picture!

He's like a lot of kids - has obviously grown up with a camera in his face! He is a gorgeous bird and every time I see him or Toby I re-think wanting a Macaw. If I could just get one as a dough baby and raise him........
Something happened when be boarded Sweets and he won't have anything to do with Bubba now. Don't know what it was, but it certainly hurts Bub's feelings that he can't have anything to do with the bird now.
Went to the pet store the other day to get food and guess who got bit? Bubba was playing with a conure and I was standing there with a 'too attached to my thumb. I kept telling him to put that bird down and help me - took him a minute to realize that I didn't want a cockatoo as a thumb ring!! (My jewelry was what got me in trouble in the first place - you shoulda seen me getting it all off and in my pocket after that!)
If you ever decide to become a traveling photographer - or if I ever make it to your neighborhood - I want pictures of all my guys! Do you do dogs and cats to or are birds (or BIRD) your specialty?
