Regent Parrot on a Branch, South Australia
When you're dressed to impress but nobody's watching.
The parrot seemed unaware of its own brilliance as it sat quietly among the branches. Its yellow feathers caught the light like a living beacon, yet it remained still, as if it had no need to announce itself. I found myself wondering how something so vivid could appear so unassuming. Around it, the trees whispered in the breeze, their leaves casting fragmented shadows over its perch. It felt like a moment suspended in timeājust the bird and its world, utterly content with their shared silence.
