Everyone thinks that “acting” is so easy. You show up, look very cute, say a few lines, pose for press photos and head home with a thick stack of waffles to enjoy. But hard-working actors would tell the story differently. There are the talent-free co-stars, the difficult props, the paparazzi….not to mention the totally inadequate snackContinueContinue reading “Thursday Thriller: Pearl Cutts in “Sneaky Sequins””

It is a big responsibility to be feathery and famous and have flocks of fans (both feathered and featherless). You have so much to do – preening, showering, chowing, nesting, napping…..

The Ruff is a rare type of wading sandpiper. It isn’t very difficult to figure out how it got its name (and it’s a darn good thing too, since other descriptions focus on somewhat less flattering features like “pot-bellied” and “gravy boat appearance”). But only the manbirds of the species have the characteristic “ruff” of extra neckContinueContinue reading “Friday Wet Bird Couture Presents: “The Ruff””

Here, it can be very helpful toContinueContinue reading “Thursday Thriller: Presenting Pearl Cutts in “Covert Banana Boat””

Gratitude is a very good quality to have (almost as good as feathers….but not quite). When we feel grateful, we feel so alive. (Some of us also feel quite pretty, but that is the topic for another blog post). Gratitude makes the greyest day seem even grey-er….and cuter, and fluffier, and prettier, come to think of it.ContinueContinue reading “Tuesday Gratefuls: Pearl & Shannon Share”
