Art work...or photography?

Posted By Floyd Blue

I think it is grand! smile Like a painting in some ways, the artist draws you into the main point of the picture through changes in shade and highlighted with color.

Can you help identify the bird I saw

Posted By Floyd Blue

Here in Southern California I saw a bird that looked a like a Meadowlark, except that it had a bright Red-orange head. The other markings were almost the same as the Meadowlark that chased it away. No dark stripes behind the eyes though, but the wings were dark striped like the Meadowlark. They were the same sized bird. I did not see another one or that one again that weekend.

Parakeet need ID

Posted By Floyd Blue

This is a particular color breed of parakeet, called a Pied I believe. If you can, you might set out a cage with food and water as see if it will climb in the cage. Or if it is very tame, then it might come to you to feed out of your hand. Once they are in the wild for a time, they become very easily frightened making them harder to catch.
