March 2024 POTM Contest!!!

This month's theme ...

COLOUR
MY
WORLD!!!

A big part of what appealed to our ancestors about parrots, and still does to many today, are the shimmering colours of those fantastical feathers.

Nowadays of course, we value them even more for the way they "colour our world" with their vibrant personalities, their antics and their unconditional love!!

So whether your birdie is
"personality plus"
as well as a riot of colour like Lovejoy ...

.... or a sweet-natured
perfect portrait in pastels
like Princess Peachie ...

.... a symphony in monochromatic tones
like Fang ...

... or patriotic hues like handsome Val ...
(Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi!!!)

Come And Show Off
Your Birdie's True Colours!!!!!​

No more than one "Official Entry"
per member, but there is no limit
on "Just For Fun" images.

Don't forget to advise if
the submission is
an "Official" entry or "Just For Fun"!

Please ensure to include your
bird's name in your post,
and remember to
observe safety guidelines.

You may use the application, software or
image generator of your choice
to caption or enhance your entry,
but any bird/s pictured
must be your own.

The winner receives a free
One Year Premium Membership
to Parrot Forums, and the
winning entry will be displayed
on the Home Page
for the following month.

Entries are open now
and will close early morning
on March 29 - times will vary
depending on your local timezone.
At the end of the submission period,

to determine the winner.

Best of luck everyone!

Awwwwwwww @Inger, Terry's pic isn't an official entry, besides which the contest theme isn't only about external beauty, it's a celebration of inner beauty and colourful personality as well. And as gorgeous Bumble has PLENTY of all of the above, I know we would all love to see an official entry from you soon!

Is she modeling?

 

[TeekoGreenCheek]

Just for fun. I like looking at Teeko when he's in the sunlight.

 

[onamom]

Is she modeling?

Oh yes, she absolutely is. I call this her "pretty pose". She literally says "pretty" and then does it. She 100% does it to show off!
