One of the best things about being very popular and feathery is how everyone always wants to be around you. Then they want to introduce all their feathery friends to you.

While the large featherless beings are generally docile and sweet, from time to time even they can get, well, uppity. In these periods, they might start to refer to your casa as “their” casa, your possessions as “their” possessions and even you as “theirs!” This presents a great “trainable moment” (camouflaged as a modeling shoot,ContinueContinue reading “Day 282: Trainable Moment”

It is a misnomer that “blue” is strictly a manly color. In fact, a lady in blue can be nearly irresistible. However, many ladies who sport blue plumage do tend to play it cool…at first.
