Lmao

Am i the only one that noticed that val is two different parrots?

Unless of course her beak is made of rubber and can curve both ways.

Look at the pictures LMAO

Nope with the pictures on page 5 there is no way that flipping the pictures would change it because right and left are still the same either way ya cut it.

In one picture the beak curvs toward the left of the body where in another it curves to the right, there are also objects in the background (like the cage)

LOL its a cute story but those are 2 different birds.

Hate to say it there John but this could very easily be the same bird although the pics were just "mirrored" to fit the site, which in turn made the beak point the opposite direction as Wildirish stated....

EAAAAAASSSSSYYY BOY...... :eusa_naug

example....

Yep, as much as it pains me I have to agree with Cliff. And I too thought the story was really cool.
