I gave my buddy Jules a bath this morning with the garden hose. He loves it. I had my son Robert take our pic afterward while he was drying out.
Jules is a Catalina Macaw, and was a freebie from someone who was moving to a city apt. and couldn't keep him.
On camera flash at -1, sunshine, and polarizer.
No pp, crop only.
Jan 2013, Jules is still doing great.

great lookin' bird waddy .. the owner aint bad either .. !!
thankyou for the pm about budgies .. he's in the other room chirping away right now .. he's getting more and more vocal .. nothing recognizable as talk yet ..
i think he might be coming up to 3 months coz he's getting his first pin feathers .. i think he's a he altho i'm still not sure .. i've seen a very slight blue tinge on his cere .. but only slight ..
when do they usually start talking if they get contact every day and hear the same thing over and over .. ?
i'll check out that site you spoke of too .. :)

What an AWESOME picture! I'm so glad you showed us yourself in your "where you live" surroundings! :) The bird is so pretty! And he looks like he rools the roost around your house. I've never owned a bird, but I hear they get just as attached to their owners as dogs and cats, if not more so.

That's amazing that you got him for free. They are so expensive if you just go to buy one! I love him!
