Hi everyone!
I'm trying to gather good parrot wing image refferences.
For those of you who have no trouble handling your birds and would like to help
I'd like to collect pictures of open wings (a single wing is fine) both under and over the wing.
I'm am however, only looking for unclipped wings since I want the natural look of them!
I'm not expecting a great deal of pictures but any would be nice!

Thank you! :)

p.s if you have links to these pictures already on the web let me know!!

The pictures at that link have a bunch of unclipped parrot wings. My GCC is in the process of growing in his flight feathers, so they're not too useful to you right now.

thanks kaylayuh :)
I actually didn't try generalizing the search like that -.-''
But as you can see it's MOSTLY macaws that show up wich is what i had feared.
this is still a step ahead and not backwards! thank you!

Not the greatest but I tried (male Eclectus ). He's molting of course and still has a few clipped feathers from when I got him.
