Hi Robin!
Now . . . S-L-O-W-L-Y . . . step away from the keyboard. Take your coffee into the kitchen and dump it . . . and rinse the cup thoroughly. Refill it with fresh, hot coffee . . . and don't add anything flammable this time.
And don't you "GAK" me young Lady!!
(You crack me up too)!

Hi Robbie! Thanks for the comment. I agree . . . I know SOME off the HTML is disabled (and for good reason) in some places and is permitted in others (Description of your own photos, for example). I doubt the Hot Links would be permitted but confess I really don't know and, since it's not addressed in the FAQs and the "Staff" is AWOL . . . only time and the luck of the Irish will get your answer for you. If I find out, I'll let you know . . . and assume you'll do the same for me, right? :)

Faces only a mother could love!! Nice contrast of colors and shapes. Initially I thought it might be nice to have their bodies in focus, but the DOF you used might make their heads/faces stand out a little more -- especially those spikey feathers on top. Thanks for commenting on my image, The Hunter. -- Naomi

Thanks Shirley! They are quite the characters even at this age. At feeding time they leave you NO doubt that they've never been fed before and are quite vocal as they lift those heads up trying to get higher than each other! It's really quite amusing.

Doyle they are so adorable! I used to hand feed my little baby (she's a lovebird) and you're so right they adapt to people so much better that way. Amazing picture, great details and clarity. Thank you so much for sharing. Best, Julie.

Thanks Bobot. I did some second guessing on the aperture for this one. Didn't want it too shallow and I seem to do that as a habit from my macro work.
You nest peeped as a kid too, eh? We're practically twins!! I was always thrilled to find the young ones . . . but I don't climb trees . . . well . . . I . . . ummm . . . don't climb them as often anymore!! :)

So maybe I should pop over to B&H and pick up a 105 right now - the price difference compared with Europe would pretty much pay the air fare!

So now the truth is revealled: punks modelled themselves on baby cockatiels!
Wonderful detail. I still haven't got a 105mm. I still want one!
