Sometimes Pete is grumpy if I get up late. He starts jiggling his food bowl up and down and it falls to the bottom of his cage. When I let him out, he goes salvaging the spilt food. Here he is being cute ☺️ I have mercifully blurred out bottom of the cage (parrot owners know!) #Parrot#Birb#BirdsOfMastodon
It’s my birthday and I opened my back door to see this gorgeous hawk hanging out. I see hawks often in the trees around my house, including a nesting pair whose arrival marks springtime for me. But I rarely get such a clear and close view, so I’m very grateful for nature’s gift to me today!
I think this pal is a red-shouldered hawk as I don’t see the RTH belly band, but I would love an ID from someone who knows SoCal birds better 😁
