A rare portrait for me, he was looking toward the camera, spot focus and metering, right between the eyes. He was close, cropped a bit, high, white, overcast sky.

Yes. It is in the Yasuni National Park and the salt lick attracts hundreds of parrots every day. Most of these are different kinds of green parrot, but a few Scarlet Macaws also show up. The pic below gives an idea of what the scene is like. It depicts the cliff above the pool.

Great shot! I see mostly Amazon parrots on the top half and blue-headed Pionus on the bottom half!!

This fella miraculously landed on the one sunlit branch before heading off into the woods. He sat there for all of about 5 seconds. Lol!

Never heard of a Ural... Looks like a cross between a Barn & Barred Owl.

Nice shot Mike. I like the head-on look.

Great shot. Part of their mating ritual, I presume.
