 my poor nieve african grey parrot thought all she had to do was pick up one of her keys to vote on her photo, they are red, yellow and blue. :-) she is only a baby and looks like she is walking a tight rope. I will explain to her that it is my fault that she never got a ribbon this time. :-)

I like the mention of the Red Yellow and Blue keys to match the ribbon colours. You might have done better to have mentioned that in the title for a laugh. But hey, what do I know, I'm right there with you score wise. :)

A cute bird, good detail in the face. You might try to photograph it against a plain background to get rid of distractions.

This would be better without the distracting foreground IMO, perhaps a head shot against a plain backgound would have had more imapct

I love Gray's! The photo looks a lot like a snapshot, however. A capture with the bird looking at the camera might have been more interesting. The flash reflection on the blue key is a bit distracting as well.

I think it lacks punch, it just seems boring. This would have been better with a tame bird doing something toward the camers.

Good detail in the bird - very pretty grays. The use of what appears to be flash makes this a bit harsh. I like the complimentary reds but the composition seems a bit awkward with the bird kind of cramped in the upper half of the frame, which is cut in half by the perch.

A nice photo. The lighting is too harsh, obviously taken with a flash. The background and cage does not add much to the photo in my opinion.

That looks like a baby Timneh. Cute pose but the flash shadows and reflection are a little harsh.
