For fun Christmas spirit.
Not grumpy, but the complete opposite.
Scritches, and Cuddles with each other, enjoying the Christmas tree. 🎅🎄

Hi, here is my official video submission of my baby suns entitled: “She Hit Me First!”. Kevin is grumpy since Hazel took up the sport of boxing. He is having a hard time being a pacifist.

Looks like the video is in .MOV format, and I'm not an apple guy so I can't view it :(

Converted to YouTube video so everyone can enjoy. Oh my goodness, nothing chases grumpies away like baby birdies! Thank you for making my day! :)

And next, willow’s bad hair day.View attachment 32899
Wow, that IS a bad hair day! I'd be feeling Grinchy too. LOL!

Is one of your photos an official entry? Which one? I love them both, but only one "Official Entry" per person. Please let me know, thank you :)

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous Skyes! They must definitely combat the most grumpiest of days. :) A difficult task, but can you tell me which of these lovely photos you would like to be your official entry? Thank you so much!

Ok, I already have an official submission so this will be just for fun!

Zazu LOVES bathies and showers. If he doesn’t get morning shower time with me then he dips in his water bowl daily. Angelo is not so keen on bathing. Takes a voluntary (spontaneous) bath before the start of every season (quarterly). Can you tell which is the eager bather and the grumpy one?

Ok, here's another just-for-fun. Commodore Norrington (Norrie) is grumpy because Mommy never lets him have any fun. Not even a drop leftover. She says wine 🍷 is not for birbies and the Commodore is under age. (Mommy, however, quite enjoyed the libation.)

Agree, perpetually grumpy face, but is the attitude different?

Oh, goodness! Norrie is really trying to get some (liquid) holiday spirit, isn't he? Too funny! :)

Ta-dah does not like hands coming from above her head! The first one is her looking for a place to bite. The second is her mad face, and the 3rd is showing mad face and mad crouched body language

Ok I staged that, because I know what makes her mad!
Then I made up and gave her cuddling to show she is really a sweet girl! Look how her expression changes@ taken just a few seconds apart, first I had to tell her sorry.
20211216_080721.jpg
20211216_080714.jpg

Look at that sweet face! All forgiveness. The crouched down was in this one w as cuz I was petting face. If you compare with mad crouch, you will see she is back on hocks ready for lunge. Back of neck feathers are raised, beak Slightly open ready for bites, eyes pointed. In happy crouch leaning forward into hand, feathers smooth, beak more closed, relaxed eyes
Official is the second picture mad face!
