Because getting Kiwi to wear a little "Uncle Sam" hat and hold a flag would be impossible....

....Doesn't mean he can't still get into the patriotic spirit:42::green::42: (Especially when there's a mini corn cob involved;))

Yep, I totally want to see someone who has a white bird, a blue bird and a red bird with an entry! I just saw a Lafeber ad like this too. My dogs have Marine Corps dress blues like my dad's but Gilbert doesn't (how cute would that be as an alternate take on the theme?)

Lovie- How'd you get that picture? Were you photographing through a window? Cute pic of Birdie:)

Yep, I stuck my (obviously-homemade) flag onto my window, got my mom to hold a flashlight near the flag, had my dad hold Birdie, and waited for the fireworks. :)

Well, I don't have too many patriotic things around the apartment, (doesn't help that I was in the hospital on the 4th, so no firework photoshoots.) but luckily Pascal is Red White and Blue... ;)

This is the best I could get, as the only red is under his tail. But he was so good for the camera. :)





Edit: No, the rope is not so high that he has to crouch to avoid touching the top.. I was sitting on the floor looking up at him and he was checking me out. :) He eventually came down to the very bottom to get at eye-level with me!

Where on earth do you get a parrot-sized cowdy hat? :D Now I've seen everything! And he wears it so well.

A friend of mine had it hanging from her rear view mirror, apparently it had a air freshener inside it at one time. But it looked like it was just his size, so we had to try it on.

Thanks for the compliment Richard! I won't let Popeye enter the contest because the winner receives a year's premium membership and I think that should go to one of the other great entries. :) Popeye was happy to have his photo taken and show off a little.
