 this is Apollo my friends bird he was very interested in what i was doing. I bought four plants mostly yellow since that was his major color, I know now I should have perhaps bought more of the red color of this perticular flower to accent him more. All that said and done I do love this photo you couldn't ask for a better model this bird just sat there moving his head every once and a while like he knew what was going on and what I needed. I would use him again in something else just because it was just such a easy photo to take.

aw... what a cutie!!
if the yellow flowers around him were a different OR darker color, it would enhance this Conure's color. Charming though!

Beautiful colours! The bird seems to lack a bit of sharpness though.

I like how it blends in so nicely with its surroundings colorwise, yet is quite clear as the point of focus in the picture.
