Very nice shots. How did you get the bird to hold still? -Or is the lens so fast that it doesn't matter?

Macaws are filled with curiosity. She just stood there looking at me wondering what was that black thing stuck to my forehead. I back away about 12 inches min focus for lens, then hit the shutter, that's it. Happy New Year. Thanks for looking.
