strange phenomenon

For some reason, these cockatiels found great delight in my white tennis shoes.
The blue parakeet and I aren't sure what to make of it. :)
Photo taken by my husband.

LOL - I thought these were" bird shoes" from the thumbnail. Great shot!! You should sell it to the shoe company with the title "EVERYONE loves these shoes!"

That is very interesting - perhaps they thought your shoes were cuttlefish!? Makes a great shot though.

Unique capture, glad you explained!

That, indeed, is interesting. Just goes to show why you must always have a camera at the ready. What must have been going through these birds minds?

That is a great friday SP! I had a cockatiel named Queenie. She looked most like the one 3rd in from the left. I can hear you laughing....

Strange phenomenon, interesting shot! These bird are too cute to be afraid of them, so no Hitchcockian implications here...
