Dear Gilly C, the pictures are lovely.
It never ceases to amaze me the extraorinary markings feathers can have.

Oh, he's so beautiful. I'm told that African Greys are really friendly pets. Have you taught him any naughty words yet?

Chicco is beautiful.
One of my work collegues has an African Grey called George. He swears horribly, and was out in the garden sunning himself last year when the neighbours children were outside having a birthday party.
George took the oppotunity to shout 'F**KERS' loudly and often until he was whisked indoors again.
