I left a drawer open and turned my back for 2 seconds and the little hens were scoping it out. (for fun)

This is what I had in mind when I suggested the theme.
Our little Sassi Bird is like a "moth to a flame" with the remote. She has chewed off all the buttons. No matter how you hide it, she can find it, flip it over and snatch a button before you know it. We now have a "good remote" and this one. (Official entry)

Your 'just for fun and Official entry' truly nails the Contest Question. Thank You!

Sunny a female B&G macaw;
Japie (m) & Appie (f), both are congo african grey;
All are rescues- had to leave their previous homes for 'reasons', are still in contact with them :)
LOL the "eating the remote" did not even occur to me anymore.
Japie just "killed" the 4th a few weeks ago ..
(at least he stopped trying to make babies with them, he is now just removing all the buttons)


Thank you for the great laugh!

Oh my! that photo brought back a flood of memories with Smokey! :eek: My Mom (RIP MOM) was certainly known to "nod off" in her recliner watching tv while Smokes was usually on her roof top. Smoker's had this ability to know when mom was snoozing,and would stealthly climb down from her roof and tip-toe across the floor and very gingerly climb up the recliner and on to mom's arm has the remote was loosely dangling in mom's hand and within SECONDS every single button would look like that one :mad: We should have bought "stock" in clicker manufacturing! Luckily Wally-Mart sold the dang generic type things pretty cheap!

It’s not just sandwiches one has to watch carefully in this home. Veggie burgers are also subject to avian attack:rolleyes::36::green: Interestingly, he does not like my dairy free “cheese” (which I don’t buy often but he gets SUPER offended about when he discovers it’s not dairy)

Hahahahaha! I can see why the moment captured in the official entry inspired this month's mischief-filled theme! These birds find an unholy glee in dismantling our things, don't they?

Caught right in the act!!! You'd think he'd show some shame and try to hide, but Kiwi is obviously less than intimidated by the prospect of being caught! Lol!

Gardein actually. Off all the frozen major brands currently on the market (frozen since a package takes me a few months to get through), they tend to have the least preservatives and artificial stuff.

Kiwi was only after the bun though. He won’t eat real or imitation meat but does like bread and the vet says small amounts are ok for him:)

So my Lovebird Kiwi escaped from her cage near my desk. I turn around to find her hanging from the towel like this...and snapped a photo mid-squeak. xD

That pose paired with the look on her face is just too funny:p

Gardein from Canada has an excellent lineup of products. Have a few Holiday Roasts in the freezer.

Oh, April was right! The combination of facial expression and positioning is highest comedy! Your Kiwi is a trench coat away from getting a public lewdness citation for flashing! Lol!


Hahahahaha! This video made me laugh so hard! Yep, that would definitely qualify as trouble. Lol! "When the hunter becomes the hunted!"

So my entry this month comes from North. I cut myself catering an event (I am a chef) and had a grey Band-Aid on and WOW DID SHE TELL ME OFF. Don't worry no birds were traumatized in the making of this video, after that I put on a more skin colored Band-Aid on that she found acceptable lol.
