Waffle Guarding for Beginners

If there is one being who needs guarding (more than a certain famous and feathery someone, that is), it is the docile, naive and slow-moving “waffle.” This being is so innocent it would probably try to give you a hug even while you are (um) buttering it up! And in fact, waffles don’t mind beingContinueContinue reading “Waffle Guarding for Beginners”

Wet Bird Couture Presents: The Fascinator

A “fascinator” is a particular type of accessory favored by featherless beings. Typically worn right on top of the head (presumably to cover up all the long unattractive strands that are already growing there) some fascinators are small and dainty while others are, well, not-so-dainty. Some even contain…..(gasp)…..feathers. Obviously this look was originally designed for beings who can growContinueContinue reading “Wet Bird Couture Presents: The Fascinator”

On Location

As a super(bird)model with feathers, sometimes you get very unusual requests. For instance, perhaps a client will ask for an “on location” photo shoot.
