Ok, it's my fault. All four were peacefully and happily preening until a certain someone noticed the camera on him, and that was the end of that! :rolleyes:๐Ÿ˜

It's the warmest morning we've had in Brisbane for a while and everyone looked like they'd appreciate a nice shower. Well, almost everyone, Lovejoy still doesn't care much for the mist bottle :( And please pardon the truck roaring up the street outside!

Ope helped me rearrange the room where my foster birds are living. He was sooooo helpful and not at all getting into everything and sticking his face inside everyone's cages ๐Ÿ˜ถ๐Ÿ˜ถ๐Ÿ˜…

(the fosters are SO gentle)

Opie, very chuffed that he did "touch" SO gently 5 times in a row and I told him he IS a good boy!!!! I love how just his head gets fluffy when he's proud of himself ๐Ÿ˜

Oh my goodness, lol, Iโ€™m trying to switch to a new cell phone provider and Kirby wonโ€™t stop yelling HELLO in the background. Heโ€™s also peppering in โ€œI LOVE YOUโ€ because he knows I canโ€™t be upset when he does that :ROFLMAO::love:

Fairly certain the phone support folks think Iโ€™m nuts.

...I have a living room of very grumpy parrots who were woken up by me checking they were alive and the air purifier turned up high after something in my roasting veggies set off the smoke detector ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

The foster room is still light so that they get some time out after the littles go to sleep, and their smoke detector was the first to alarm.....

So happy birds all around in this joint ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Thankfully air exchanges doing their job and we're back to good air, phew!!!! This is the first I've had any issues while cooking since getting Cotton and I don't wish to repeat it!

Oh man, our smoke detectors go off just from steam, but thankfully the kitchen is on a separate floor from both birds. The dogs sure hate it though! It mostly happens when I let Esme cook. :sneaky:๐Ÿ˜Œ
