    They are very tame in Florida. This picture was taken at Cypress Lake, off of Canoe Creek Road one early morning.
    Later on a man came out and gave them some seeds. That's why they hang out there.
    I wish he/she had turned towards the camera, but it did not happen.
    Then as I mentioned the guy came out, they started feeding and the magic was over.
    Thanks for looking.

    Bird macro, Great idea Karl. It is good to see this amount of detail.

    A macro it is. The top of the head is amazing!

    Super detail and color. Certainly having a little turn of the head and eye toward you would have helped, but a great image nonetheless. Did you try any alternate comps with the eye near the ROT point?
