IT'S NOT A BIRD. I could not resist sharing it. This parrot is in fact a female model who posed for Johannes Stötter, a fine art body painter. Using breathable paint, he spent hours painstakingly turning this woman into the image of a parrot, brushstroke by brushstroke. The model's arm forms the parrot's head and beak, and her legs form the wing and tail feathers. Remember: always take a closer look as things aren't always what they appear to be. Once you realise what it really is, the bird seems to disappear.
