Even more amazing when you realize the type of equipment they had back then and she had to get all the parrots to hold still to get that shot!

That is a truly amazing picture. It's not like they had digital cameras where you could take tons of shots and just pick the best one. I have some old pictures if family around that time period. One shot at it was all you got. Very impressive shot indeed.

Whoah! That would have had to have been taken with a large format camera, so there would have had to been either a lot of light or some very still birds!
