This afternoon, I set out on a "hunt" for the *rarest specimen* of an amazon- the elusive "yellow beard". Well.... not so elusive around my house come 1-2pm, but not typically in a photo mood after his afternoon bird-bath. Anyways, I looked for the "sign" of the yellow beard- empty water dish, soaked paper I so careless changed around noon, dampness within a 10' radius of the cage- and then I happened upon him... Well, more he let me know he was in no mood for his afternoon nap through a series of most obvious tail shakes and puffs. After catching the bearded one with my bare hands, I placed him upon his play tree and captured the first images of this magnificent creature:
The yellow bearded amazon is characterized by his prominent beard and "I will kill you" gaze:
He may also display a characteristic wet patch on his rotund little belly:
This magnificent creature demands respect, and shows he means business by raising the feathers on top of his head:
In a rare moment, you may catch him fluffing his feathers in a playful way:
But most of the time, he is poised to eat you, and has a taste for human flesh:
OF COURSE THIS IS FOR FUN! Kiwi is a nice boy, but he sure looked mean this afternoon
