These came out nice. Is that behind glass or were you in there with them? Wish we had a zoo.

I was inside an atrium with them. Surprisingly they let me get very close. But I guess thats what they are used to.

That's a great opportunity. Birds would normally allow you to get close if we didn't hunt them or kill them for no reason. They have learned to fear humans. It's not built in. ;)

Very true! I didn't look at it that way. I was just thinking about how they are around hundreds of excited children everyday, unlike someone like me who's quite and patient just wants to take a picture. :lol:
