And this is the third in a series of my friend Mr. Parrot at the Phoenix Zoo. Here, his vibrant personality shines through all of his boldly colored feathers, and he engages the viewer not with just his plumage, but with his charisma as well. I can almost see a full out grin, cheeks and all, and half expected him to start talking and flapping his wings, but he did not. Instead, he just smiled for the camera.
