Here's Rio & his sidekick being destructive. They get a new grapevine perch every so often & they love to spend hours debarking it. It is a bit messy but they are so industrious that I can't deny them this pleasure.

This is Laker enjoying his birthday greens. I pick a lot of fresh grasses for them from May until September. Sometimes they get them on the branches I use for a bridge or they get them in a vase beside their cages.

Well, I love watching birds preen, so here's a pic of our newest resident, Patrick (male yellow dominant hybrid Camelot macaw), making sure every inch of that long, lovely tailfeather is in perfect condition! We were visiting the home of my friend, Cynthia (Many Feathers), and Dr. Scott McDonald had just given Patrick a physical. Dang vets, ruffling up them pretty feathers! *grins*

Here's Ceilidh, my male Scarlet macaw, doing his preening thing. He and Mikey Blue get some rough play in, and that ALWAYS results in having to straighten up those lovely feathers, afterwards :-).

Birds being birds? Well, for Bob, my male Blue and Gold macaw, that means eating :-). Here he is, enjoying an almond:

Here's Kenobi, my male red-dominant hybrid Camelot macaw, doing one of his very favorite things--flying. He has just landed on the hoopball, and as an added bonus, scared the pee-diddly out of Rowan, who finds Kenobi just a bit intimidating for her taste:

Here is Mikey Blue, my male Hyacinth Macaw. He truly is a "blue puppy with feathers", and loves to play. Here he is, showing a dish towel who's boss!

Here is Tommaso just being a bird playing with his little car on our desk. We have to clear the desk off when he is out because he'll play with anything on our desk. He is such a curious playful boy.

Here is my male Green Wing macaw, Arthur. Arthur is the King of Naughty--he loves to climb up the "macaw proof" ceiling protectors, and hang from the ceiling, which is what he is shown doing, here :-):
