I thought this seemed fitting, two little devils!
My entry:
Arctic and Squiggles started a little squabble over who got to come out first.

Thanks for entering!

Are you sure they're arguing about who goes first? I think maybe the conversation is more like, "After you", "No, you go first", "No, I insist, after YOU!!" What a devilishly cute little pair of sweeties!

Passive-aggressively fighting over who got to go first.
The photo is a screen shot from a video I took, it resulted in Squiggles (green) coming out first.

My submission for this month: Scomo guarding his lady in the nest

Scomo and his partner Jenny have since laid 3 eggs, and Scomo knows he must protect them with all his might. Get on his bad side and you'll get a nasty bite :eek:

Oh Noah, thank you for your entry, and for the wonderful news! Congratulations on becoming a grandfather - again - although you are way too young :) No doubt Scomo will make the perfect doting daddy and would fight like the devil himself to protect his lady-love, I wouldn't want to cross him!

All I see are two loveable angels, but OK, for the sake of contest one is a bit devilish!!:D

I love this picture. I want to cut out him in the Dark circle of the nest, and make into a Christmas ornament!!!
Congratulations hoping for adorable blue babies!!

lol
Frankly they both look sweet, look at tge smile on your ghost!
I love Noodles floofy cheeks

That's the face she makes when she is trying to convince people to trust her "small-beaked"-self..The second those feathers go back (assuming this is day 2-3 of your acquaintance), REMOVE YOUR HAND IF YOU DON'T KNOW HER LOL (UNLESS YOU ARE A CHILD LOL or a dog...or a favorite person lol- if that is the case, LEAVE IT AND FEEL NO FEAR IF YOU WANT ADMISSION TO HER CLUB LOL! )-She's cool with everyone until it feels like they are moving in ha! MY younger sister is on-board now, to the point where she understands my "small beak" jokes-- we call this the Thomas Jefferson face, but it's so funny how she turns it on and then turns it off (depending on the person-- like that Jurassic Park spraying dinosaur lol)-- She is really sweet to all people for the first day or so , but then she wants to initiate you into the flock, and that takes some work..Initiate stress test--- certain people DO fail her stress test, she is never sure who she wants long-term without testing (excluding kids) lol! I will say, she is GREAT with strangers if I am around, but it's once she decides to take the relationship to the next level that she gets weird and wants to test them out lol!
She reminds me of a character on a reality show, because she totally draws people in and then takes it up a notch to test them lol! Thankfully, when you are in, you are in...and if you are a kid or a dog, you are automatically in ha (for now...)!
