Quincy & Coco, yesterday. I swear, they've learned how to pose I was held up in the kitchen just now, in the nicest possible way. Quincy was on my shoulder but she'd missed lunchtime (naughty Daddeh had given her the slip). Mt Hibs landed on my head so I transferred him to my hand for a chat and a sing-song. This attracted Herman, who landed on my head and joined in the singing. I managed to coax Herman onto my arm but shortly after that, Mr Hibs decided it was just too crowded and flew off. Herman moved up my arm to my shoulder, forcing Quincy to shift to my other shoulder. Herman sat on my shoulder for nearly twenty minutes, singing away and preening my ear (he is so much gentler than Quincy, he's never hurt me). Eventually he drove Quincy away so he could have me all to himself. After Herman left, Mr Hibs returned and asked me to take a selfie. Is it a selfie when someone else takes your picture?
Edit: Let me know if pics aren't displaying correctly!

Finarfin & Eeyore catching a few zzzzzz's Chocobo investigates the new feature in one of the cage-top gyms: A slightly damp Squeak. Loric & Boba prefer to stay dry.

I was distracted making lunch today. A moment's inattention is enough. Later a budgie landed on my head. I was delighted to learn that it was Eeyore! Smudge & Mhoram joined Quincy on Daddeh's shoulders. Sometimes they chase Quincy away but this time I was able to grab the camera but not quickly enough to get the three cuties in a pic. So I settled for a snap of the two budgies at the Kale Station. Maddy Prior with her face in the jacuzzi, Gurgeh was searching for Nutriberries. They are most of them snoozing now, having had a mad crescendo of singing earlier. Really loud

Happy Official Hatch Day, Finarfin! Two years old and such a handsome lad (Finarfin when he first arrived.)

Eeyore, Hector & Herman in conference: Gurgeh & Finarfin are not troubled by the presence of a chocobo in the Jungle and vice versa for Chocobo: Whistle, addressing the cuttlefish the hard way: Finarfin, Gurgeh & Maddy Prior: Chocobo!

Chocobo playing peek-a-boo with Quincy: Coco in the lookout post: Gurgeh at forage: Eva & Loric: Loric is a busy chap, splitting his time between Eva and Boba but still managing to make the occasional query of Maddy Prior & Isabeau as to their availability. Busy lad.

Isabeau is behaving completely normally but sometime during the fifteen minutes I was out hanging the laundry, she ended up with one side of her head covered in blood.
Initial panic that she might have lost an eye proved unfounded. I cannot see an actual wound and I am somewhat at a loss.
As I say, Isabeau is behaving as if nothing has happened, other than being irritated by being grabbed by the human. I wish I knew what has happened. I don't know whether a blood feather from her head could possibly be the cause but if it was, who plucked it out?

These birds are a constant worry. Glad Isabeau is okay.
What a mystery!

Poor Isabeau! I wonder how she hurt herself in that amount of time.
We've been tempted to install another camera in the bird room before. Just don't know where to put it without it becoming a new perch or chew toy.
