Miro takes 1st in FWCAS Photo Contest!

We were at the Florida West Coast Avian Society show in Sarasota today, and Miro is FAMOUS- Well, Not really- But he does have a ribbon- 1st place in the action photo category-


For some reason, he is scared TO DEATH of the ribbon, though... Runs from it. Oh well.

Even better, I won VENDOR BUCKS for the show, so he got new toys... He is FINALLY starting to earn his keep!

This is the shot that won the judges over- One of his baby pics- and also my Avitar-

Miro got himself one of those acrylic boxes with shapes to sort (he is VERY smart and learns tricks like that fast- especially if there is a peanut involved!), and a bunch of those plastic balls with bells in them that both he and his 'sister' zoe love...

Good on you Miro!!! Show all those "Big" macaws you are a force to be reckoned with! He's very handsome and in my opinion, a well deserved blue ribbon!
