Ernie Loves Toes
Is it because they wiggle? Or the sparkly toe polish? I'm not sure... but Ernie loves to land on my toes and warble away. It is common knowledge that feathers tickle tooties, but it should be added that beaks are very ticklish too. One little wiggle on my part, and Ernie is more than ready to chomp away...

Shower Buddies
One day I was looking for the birds and I thought I heard their chirps resonnating from the bathroom... When they were not atop the bathroom door, I was confused until I discovered them in their new roosting location on the shower curtain. The birds love practicing their interior decorating skills on the liner curtain -- they bit off little bits of plastic from the top edge, giving it a "delightful" deckle edging.

Happy Birthday Birdies!
For my birthday Michelle and Tyler gave me a double-decker bird house painted my three favorite colours: green, blue and yellow. It even had Ernie and Joey's names painted on the side. The birds were thrilled and have spent a lot of time trying to smush themselves into the little holes. Joey has made himself a project of trying to make the holes bigger. I think I will get my dad to help him out, lest he get it open just enough to get inside, but not enough to get back out... I don't want him to get stuck!
A Taste for Fashion?
Joey was immediately enamoured with my pretty new floral Tommy Hillfigar purse. Soon after I set it down near his house, he ran over, jumped up on top and started poking his little head inside. Of course, where one bird goes, the other is sure to follow! I was able to get this cute shot of the birds socializing with each other.
