Brian M. Guzzetti sent this portrait of a Kea -- a parrot found in alpine regions of New Zealand's South Island. This particular bird was spotted at Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand.
Guzzetti travels internationally for Habitat for Humanity and photo assignments. He took the photo of the Kea
(Nestor notabilis) using a Fuji S2pro and Nikkor AF-VR 80mm-400mm lens. The colorful bird is known for its inquisitive nature and flexible diet, including live sheep! You can visit
Guzzetti's website to see more of his photos.
