More parrot pics

Just back from a quick work trip in Utah and this bird won't leave me alone.  Usually he's down to walk around or post up on a perch or nap (or destroy something) but today when I got home he wouldn't get off my shoulder.  Well except for when the neighbor kid started playing basketball; then he did a short 6 ft face plant/glide thing. Once he realized he was on the ground he came running back!

I think with the right training we can make a salon called "bird grooming" where parrots pluck your ear hair. Customers will need to sign a poop waiver of corse.  Maybe we can partner with one of the salons that has that goldfish toe treatment?

Montana and snow

A few weeks ago we flew up to Washington and then drove to Kalispell MO to see brother D.

The leaves were changing and it was beautiful--my allergies were in full effect!

 I was very unprepared for the weather- RAIN and SNOW! We don't see much of that in San Diego and it was obvious. I did have a good excuse to shop for a new raincoat....

We listened to D play bass in a band, watched the boys longboard around the lake, then headed up to Glacier National Park. Where we were told the top of the park was closed because of SNOW. The first week of September! 

Can you see the SCUBA diver in the river? And I thought the Pacific was cold!!

Weird bird people…

I was hoping it would never come to this but yes we are are officially weird bird people...

I also have some really great photos from out Montana trip I need to post but i guess the birds get this round:

Chickens digging in the dirt and playing in the rain.  The. Dumbest. Animals. Ever.  How did evolution let these birds survive???

Harley likes to do this weird stretch a few times a day.  Pull your right leg out, pull your right wing out; than bit the flip out of someone!  Just kidding he doesn't really bite. Much.  

Every now and then he does like to be petted

And will walk to you

And put his head down to say "Okay right here"

LA run

Quick trip to LA to see an old friend
