Just some cute Kiwi pics

Earlier today he was preventing me from washing my face. I asked him why I wasn't allowed to use the faucet, but he would only honk at me:06:

I caught him taking an adorable nap:07::60:

And naturally tried to get a few more photos

"GO AWAY!"

I know I'm cute, but I am SO not into a photoshoot right now!

What is it with photo device and Amazon's acting like you have or are about to steal their identity or something like that?

Great photos!

Love that wide eye open nap! Hahaha! I always love Kiwi pics! So full of personality!

What a beautiful bird, such vibrant colors and a personality to match!

Don't know if you are living in a drought area, but if so Kiwi will be your water monitor as depicted in the first pic!

He is looking especially vibrant right now, as he just finished up a big molt and is finally looking less like a cactus and more like a parrot again

No drought here in Oregon. It poured pretty much all last week I think he was just being ornery, amazon dominance and all that

Nothing like a colorful parrot after a molt!!

Isn't that what locals call "Liquid Sunshine?"

What it that blue cloth hanging in his cage? A comfort cloth? Sleeping nook?

Tis a sleeping hut he gets during the winter for additional warmth. My "profile picture" is him hanging out in it. I made that hut before we even knew what bird we were getting and no other hut will do according to him Kiwi is not a fabric chewer, though I know it's about time to replace the ties again:03:. The washing machine has done more damage to the hut over the years than Kiwi has:56:

I think the 'locals' reserve that term more for things of an adult beverage nature Rain is more of an "ugh" thing:25:
