Here are my two sentences:
Anne had seen the lovely bird land on its owner's shoulder.
Anne had seen the iridescent green and crimson feathered parrot, fly onto its owner's leather-covered shoulder.
From John Steinbeck's "East of Eden"---
"On the wide level acres of the valley the topsoil. It required only a rich winter of rain to make break forth in grass and flowers. The spring flowers in a wet year were unbelievable. The whole valley floor, and the foothills too, would be carpeted with lupins and poppies."
