The Curious Compendium 2023 Tour Finale: Herding breeds!

The great grey is actually Bullyland! So its a fairly old mould at this point. But thank you!

Nice owls, but no Naturalism?

No Naturalism! Maybe someday, they are very nice figures. I would say my Japanese maker portion of my collection is in its infancy, but I do try to grab items when I get access to them.

Cockatoos!

Galah are the most widespread cockatoo species in Australia! Galahs are especially adapted for their dry arid environment; they can go long periods without water and can rehydrate with salt water. Lastly, they are known to readily hybridize with other cockatoo species both in captivity and in the wild. In a domestic setting, there are several well known crosses (deliberate and accidental alike) with nicknames; such as a galah-cockatiel cross called a galatiel.

Wonderful cockatoos. You know the shineg figures? Any beautieful species of cockatoos.

Nice cockatoos! I must put my hands on the new Galah

Great collection-!the large Major Mitchell Cockatoo is very very nice.

Beautiful cockatoos!

Thanks friends!

Blue and gold macaw!

The black feathers on their face are unique to each bird like a fingerprint. They are zygodactyl (two toes point forward and two backwards). In the wild they live from 35 to 50, but in captivity they can be 80!

Scarlet and red and green macaws!

Red and green macaws have one of the largest home ranges of any macaw, and they have a bill that can generate 2,0000 PSI!

What a beautiful and colourful teams Red and green macaw bill is a real killing machine

Beautiful macaws! I love seeing film of them in the wild, they are so intelligent. The blue & gold are my favorite!

Thank you my friends!

Mixed macaws!

Military macaws can bite down at 700 PSI (interesting that red and greens are so much stronger). They may fly 15 miles or more in search of food daily. Lastly, I didn't know there are 3 subspecies; the Mexican and the Bolivian military macaw.

The Bullyland is such a great figure. Love your repaints!

Nice again

Nice pic again You've enabled me to discover the real size of the S&N Kakapo, I imagined it to be smaller.

Thank you my friends!

Mixed small parrots
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Kākāriki are named for the Maori word for "small parrot". One notable thing I read is that the male does not feed chicks directly; he will pass foraged food to his female mate who will then feed their chicks with it.

So colorful!

I like parrots
