The Feather Brained Bird

Anyone want a bird that has the knack of pulling a lens ring off so that the lens shutters pop right off and the lens won't go back into the camera right? Yep, you read that one right... got his beak right under the ring and picked it off... lucky it was my little Point and Shoot - it is still usable but just have to be more careful with covering the lens... it won't pay to send it back to be repaired... suffice to say that little Barack went into his cage as punishment... I was not a happy camera...
Yet, here is another little video of my birdie... I am obsessed I know... he has this thing about 'pecking' something like he is typing on a keyboard... I will admit that I was teasing him with the camera in his face but he still tweeters all along... and yep, you can hear someone blowing their nose :)
I have just found out we are in fact going to Tunica, Mississippi at the end of April and make a road trip over to Arkansas... not sure where in Arkansas exactly but it is a place we have not been and we will celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary there...

A cute bird that likes cameras and typing...what a riot. I'm glad you can still use your camera.

Oh my word...I would have flipped if the bird did that to my camera!!

Hey Fliss... I grew up in Arkansas before I started moving around. If you could only see one place in Arkansas, go to Hot Springs (close to my home). It is beautiful there and amazing. There is also a place you can dig for diamonds in Murfreesboro. Of coure, the capital, Little Rock, has the Clinton museum if you liked him. Let me know if I can help you with anything. I wanted you to come to NC though!
