Ugh! Today is Apparently Grumpy Parrot Day

I thought today was Thursday but apparently it is really "grumpy parrot" day. Well, at least for several of my birds and one of the foster birds. I try to find the joy in small things on hard days and today was no exception. I amused myself by creating a dialog for my grumpy Goffin's Cockatoo.

Me:    Lulu, please put down my iPhone.
Lulu:  I can't hear you, I'm eating your iPhone.
Me:    Lulu, look! I have an almond!
Lulu:  drops phone on couch, flies over and takes almond back to the couch and sits on the iPhone.
Me:    Lulu, you know there are rescues for a reason. I give her a very stern look.
Lulu:  Looks around at all the birds, the toys and treats. Yeah right mom!


Yes, she knows me well. Nobody is going anywhere but I do allow myself an occasional threat. Not that it changes anything but sometimes it does lighten the moment.
