http://tinyurl.com/36h4fp Budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus) native to Australia, photographed in Germantown, Maryland, USA.... He looked really tired! pixelpeeping info: Canon 20D 300/4 IS with 12mm extension, hand-held, 1/80, F5 ISO 800. Slight crop. I had the flash on but it didn't fire (bad contact I think), kinda just a grab shot when I saw him in the backyard. Poor little bastard must be lost. Obviously an escaped pet as I was able to approach very close. -- Christian =========== He has a band on, does that mean he's an escaped pet? Or just banded? (Maybe to track populations/migrations?) Now makes me curious, how often do you see banded birds?
