Parrot on my shoulder


See - I told you I would have a picture of that parrot on my shoulder! The parrot is our 12 year old African Grey, named Hakeem, who surprised us all a month ago by laying 2 eggs!!! So, our "he" was really a "she" all these years. It took a while to wrap our brains around that shock, but though she is sometimes now referred to as "Hakeema" by Mark, she is still pretty much the same bird. She would have been a very good mother, but we had to take the eggs away so she wouldn't be laying on them forever without ever having a baby.

Did you eat them? Bury them? I mean, I wouldn't know what to do.
