Description EDIT: A few people have told me it looks like a lovebird, and I have to agree! <3
But, wikipedia acts like "parakeet" is a generic term for "long tail-feathered" birds, so if someone wants to explain that to me, I'd love to know why! So anyway, that's why I'm going to leave the title for now. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parakeet

I'm not 100% positive it's a parakeet, but that's what I typed in google to find this image

All credit for the photograph goes to the photographer and website.

Just some practice with realism and birds. Two things I don't practice too often.
Realism is always really rewarding.
