For Chris-md: A Baxter Photo Update

[GreatBlue320]

Hello Everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed a wonderful holiday season.

In another thread, Chris-md asked if I would help him get his Baxter-fix by posting a few photos... He didn't have to ask me twice!

Hope you enjoy!

How cute Baxter is Shawna! Such beautiful colors, and he looks like a real little character too .

 

[GreatBlue320]

Thanks, Julie! Baxter is quite the character. His has rightfully earned the nickname "The Pill" because he can be quite demanding in his special mini macaw way!

Oh what a super special treat this is!!!

Baxter is STUNNING, Shawna! And your love for this guy shines through very loud and clear! :smile015:

LOOOVED the sound effect of the video clip! HAHAHAHAHA!!

Please, spoil us with Baxter a little more often, would you?

 

[GreatBlue320]

Thanks so much, Wendy! I do love him so very much... even when he is being The Pill!

I'm so glad you liked the sound clip in the video! When I found it on the video editing app, I just HAD to add it.

Baxter has mastered a new trick - I need to make a video and then I will post it!

Great stuff! i just posted a request for Baxter pics just before I saw this.....

 

[Amanda_Bennett]

Thanks for the cuteness coma! He's a gorgeous boy that Baxter!

 

[Anansi]

Nice! Thanks for the Baxter pics (good looking out, Chris!), as well as the sweet bonuses of the video and finally getting a face to your name! Keep them coming, Shawna!

 

[chris-md]

Eeeek! I'm such a fanboy, This just made my week he is just such a beauty! Cute video as well!

I wholeheartedly endorse Wendy's statement, please bring him around more often.

 

[Weezerj]

Loki loves to do the headdress game as well. He seems to love to put a big bell over his head....I'll try to get a pic.

Baxter sure is handsome!

 

[GreatBlue320]

Thanks all for taking time to view Baxter's photos and for encouraging me to post more often!

Weezerj - PLEASE get a picture of Loki "wearing" his bell!

In the meantime, here is another photo of Baxter wearing one of his toys. He sat like this for at least 5 minutes!

 

[Weezerj]

I wonder if this is an Illigers thing or do other Macaws like to "wear" toys on their heads? Mine loves too and Baxster seems to like this as well...

 

[Allee]

Shawna, thank you for sharing Baxter's photo essay! Baxter is such a handsome character, his adorable personality shows through in all the sweet photos. Please don't hesitate to post many, many more.

 

[Weezerj]

Sorry the pic is crappy, but he's camera shy from time to time (actually he just thinks its a toy and wants it for himself)....

 

[GreatBlue320]

Haha! Tell Loki that Baxter says, "You look great in that hat"!
