Ricky is sooooo cute. He looks like he really likes you and wants a kiss! That is so sweet.

Great pics, thanks for sharing. It looks like he is content on your arm. Too bad you can't spend more time together.

Thanks for the pictures! What a spread she has there. I really think you're lucky to get to work there. I bet most of the sponsors don't get to actually help care for their sponsor bird. Ricky is very lucky to have you.

Matched set

You know, it's always interesting when two of the guests at a party are wearing the same thing :-) Nice bit of coordination and it looks as if Ricky is doing very well.

Gayla, you have such a great sense of humor (re: coordinating outfits.) I applaud you for your sponsorship of Ricky and your volunteer work at the Gabriel Foundation. You have a kind and loving heart.

Well, I'm 53, and I'm not working, and I swore to myself the next job I get will be something I'll love. No more waking up for work and hating the idea of it.

(see my fingers & toes post, in the Lounge)

If all goes right, I will be able to work my final working years doing something I love....being and loving the birds.

I'll see Ricky on Tuesday, I'll tell him you all said HI!
