   Beware of the Samurai Parrot
Our little conure, the intrepid little fellow who nested in my knitting (cashmere, luckilly only a swatch!) must either be a samurai, or demon! He is feisty-- 3 colours of green with a red splotch around his neck. He is called a cut-throat conure-- he is either charming,talks (when he wants) or makes loud kissing noises (such as if he sees a man and woman are close together , or letting me know he likes something (like a toy or food-- he kisses those items) He has openned his cage door, and when he gets out is either very stealthy, or flies smack into a window. His beak is incredibly sharp, and I have the scars to prove it! He is clever,and this seems to come out when I least expect it.. I have been working on a sketch of a samurai parrot, using him as my model. After about 2 mos , I finished the piece. He watches me sketching and when I finished last night, he looked at the picture, and made loud kisses. I guess he just wanted to let me know, he wants to be an anime star! I will try to get a photo of him up and the sketch is in my fan art. He also has a devilish little laugh---heh heh heh... so just wanted to share him with my friends. When my husband is on business trips, the 2 parrots are my companions.

Last night as I drove home from an exhausting work day, the sunset was so brilliant with turqoise,brilliant orange , neon pinks and purples tinting the palm trees and canyon ledges, it brought tears of joy to my eyes. That a tiring , difficult day could be wrapped up by Nature with such a spectacular show for no special reason, other than "just because ".

Sending my friends here canyon sunsets (and parrots) just because you are special ! Love and Peace!
This is a photo of my parrot, and yes, he's eating a bit of pizza here!
