Sightings

Yesterday, on the way to class Lani and I heard a quaker expressing his annoyance at someone carrying a ladder near the Chick-Fil-A at Loop 1604 and US 281. A quaker's annoyance call is very distinctive.

I hope to be able to post that sound so that others may recognize and log their own sightings, too.

New Paper?

The housekeepers let me go to bed early last night. So finally got some real sleep before they turned in. But when I got to my cage this morning, the paper under my cage was filled with pictures of Joey Crawford!

Is this why they stay up late at night?

The Car Seat

Today the housekeepers startled me. They brought this large contraption into the house. As soon as it entered the room, Sweetie jumped to the ground. Birdie promptly followed. Pepe started his usual squawking. (Does it really matter what happens for him to start squawking?)

Now, I don't mind it too much when the housekeepers bring large things through the house; that is to be expected. (How else would they bring me my treats?) But instead of putting it away, they just left it in the middle of the room, antagonizing us.

The housekeepers mentioned something about Caitlin. What's a Caitlin?

I'll put up with it... For now.

something to make you happy

Sweetie says hello, and she thinks that they way you ring your bell is a great skill that she loves.

This is not my first day!

My housekeepers decided to use the vacuum cleaner and change the paper in my flock's cages. They also changed the paper in Pepe's cage. Pepe starred in his own reality t.v. show: "So you think you're louder than a vacuum cleaner?" Naturally, he lost in the first round.

Birdie whistled very enthusiastically the whole time the vacuum was running. I'm sure it was very pretty, but I'd rather not hear him at all.

I showed Sweetie that I'm not afraid of that cleaner. Chicks dig parrots with skilz... Mine include biting off toes and flirting across the room.

Well, back to preening!
