Angry Bird

Had this little Angry Bird sitting on a branch outside my front door yesterday. Didn't seem bothered with me moving around but at some angles.... A super Angry Bird.

I call them the Bover Boys of the parrot world,yes they can be very aggressive at times,especially when it comes to food.

Cheeky looking lori. They can appear to be cranky with their aggressive and loud squawking, but they're generally speaking very social and quite relaxed around humans. And, very cheeky and mischievous.

And, as Ron has said, they can be aggressive when it comes to food. I have 2 as pets.

I took about 30 shots of the bird as it was moving about on the tree. Many of them aren't quite sharp as it kept moving and I couldn't get a quite good enough shutter speed. It was just this particular shot that it looked like it was a really angry bird

yup, he or she does look a wee bit angry I agree! They can give quite bad nips if you tick them off. Both of mine have nipped me, drawing blood. They sometimes just get very excited and hip hard without meaning to hurt you.
