Cotton

Cotton

Cotton is a medium sulphur-crested cockatoo. He barks like a dog and uses tools. His favorite tool is a scooper that came out of a new can of coffee. He uses it to dip in his water bowl and scoop up the water which he then pours down his throat. This is my first bird, a divorce present to myself which I still cannot explain except to say I was in a state of meltdown that day.

I love this picture of my son and my Mother which was taken shortly before she died August 2004 at the age of 94. And, oh how she loved her handsome grandson. They were allies as two Leos battling a Taurean (me).

Princess

Princess

Our newest addition to the family is Princess, a little Minnie Pin who has spring loaded legs and never met a piece of cardboard or paper that didn't deserve to be shredded. She joined me while on a cross-country trip at the age of 5 months. As you can see, she is a tiny bundle of love.
