I had a sneaky digital scribble this evening, looking at Richard the Bird through the bars of his cage as he glared malevolently back at me with his yellow beady eye. He was having a hissy fit because I gave him a fresh raspberry, foraged at the local supermarket, but he wanted Husb, the parrot god, to give it to him. I am just not good enough. So he snatched the raspberry from my hand and threw it out of his cage in contempt! He didn’t even taste it.
I’ve been in your position while taking care of a friends bird. Who ever knew those little feathered critters could be such a hand full (and how long hair would potentially cause so much havoc). Bites happen, poop happens, and after 27 years of sharing my home with them, they still drive me bonkers. Richard the Bird is so lucky to have you in his life! Hope your bite has healed.
You’ve done such a great job capturing Richard’s image! 😀
Thanks Gale. he’s going home tomorrow. I’ll miss the little tyke 😦
Great bird!
He’s quite bonkers 🙂
Very nice sketch.. He seems a to be really special! 😉 Sunny greetings!
Thank you, he’s quite a character 🙂
Naughty Richard! Love the sketch, quick is definitely good.
Thank you. He doesn’t stop fidgeting so I have to be quick
