The reason for Nanna pulling a face is that the King Parrot is a large bird and naturally uses its claws to hang on. Have a look at the bird on her arm. The next day her arms were a mass of small red scratches form the birds clambering over her.
Great scalp massage when they landed on your head though - especially for those of us who are folliclely challenged.

Nanna does look quite pained!

brave woman! There's no way I'd let that many birds near me

[Kane Arlow]

She is putting on a brave face. Their claws are razor sharp. But they are a magnificent bird.

Wow what a wonderful image - poor Rhoda with all those claws digging in but what a scene!! She obviously looked very tasty!! The one on her head just cracks me up!! Well done - you deserve a medal for standing still!! Fab colours!! Has to be a Fav for Rhoda's pain!!

Fabulous shot, but poor Nanna must be battle scarred after this photo.

[Debbie]

[Margo]

[Peter]

Great fun image Terry love your wife's expression, for goodness sake take the the shot and be quick about it:)

[Martin Jalkotzy]

Yikes, Marilyn would not go near a shot like this!

[Rachel]

Ouch! Quite a few young ones there. They are my favourite bird by far.

[Candace]

Next time give her oven mitts!!

[Susan C Clow]

Great shot and love her expression which says it all. She's braver than I would be.

[llindi]

Wow! How lucky woman :)

[Denise Wood]

Wow! The things your wife will do for you! Hope she was well rewarded :)

[Ron]

They were obviously aware of her prowess as a helicopter pilot and knew they could subject her to a little physical abuse. What a great capture! Will that be this year's Christmas card maybe?

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely shot if your not the one the birds are on.

[Sheralee S]

Oh dear, I hope they didn't poo on her, lol.

Okay, I'm completely envious. What a treat to serve as a perch for such beautiful birds. (I'm frequently decorated with little scratches on my arms from serving as a parrot perch. It's how I know when a nail trimming is needed.)
