The picture of this Scarlet Macao was taken in Safari World in Thailand last week. Beautiful birds. (100-400@210, F 7.1, 1/400s, ISO400)

Thanks all for comments. 2 year old relative of me saw this picture today, and she was amazed about the colors as well (like me).

Wowie, this pic looks like something out of a Canon brochure for a lens. Awesome colors. Nice capture too.

Did the parrot end up plucking the offending feather, or did it leave it in there for posterity?

Thanks Gary and kolok. Now you made me think if I should contact Canon Brochure Master ... maybe not - I'm having their yearly catalog as my toilet reading, and to see picture taken by me there during every visit, might prevent my head to be emptied ... (you understand ...)
