The Birds on Display

This old government provincial building is just three blocks from our apartment and is still used for council meetings.

In the plaza in front of the building a tent was set up with a bird exhibit inside. They are pretty exotic birds with lots of color. Ian had a great time there.

This pair is pretty bright and BIG. They can easily snap a pencil in half with their beaks. It isn't a good idea to invite them to sit on your finger.

This is the first PINK parrot we have ever seen. We enjoyed viewing the small sampling of birds in all their color.

I like your bird pictures, the white bird looks like one on another blog from Australia. The Flynns from our ward are serving there.
