All my birds are individuals, just like any other creature. With some animals, there behaviors and personalities are too subtle for us to notice or interpret, unless we have taken the time to understand them. In the 6 yrs that I have lived at my current and last house, I have had three bats get into my house on separate occasions. The last time it happened, I took pictures before releasing it. I have been warned to be very careful, in case of rabies, which of course i am.

The Flying Atheist commented on Claire Donnelly's group LGBTQI atheists, nontheists, and friends"I'm with you Chrissie, Dallas, and Daniel. If an anti-gay supporter wants to be a selfless martyr and end their life over two people loving each other, then let them kindly proceed, as long as they don't take any innocent victims…"
"A real scary video, Joan, but my nerves are made of straw. Glad the surgery went well! Yes, parsley fights inflammations, very good for you!
What a good picture of Ian, you look well!
And this is to wave goodbye as I'm off to the Vesuvius…"
