Charlie

Charlie hates the camera.... so it's always a challage to get good shots of him!





I took him outside today in the snow and had him do some flying... I don't think he necessarily liked the snow!






I'd like to get some better pictures, but we need sun to do that.... anyway, hope you enjoyed!

he's gorgeous... love the flight shots... i wish i could get a harness onto my guys so they could go outside too - but they always put up a "life or death" fight as soon as they see the harness

Your in New York... ever heard of the quakers in Brooklyn?



And I do say, it does get mighty cold in San Francisco!!!




Charlie wasn't outside for very long, but I am glad that he accepts the harness! Or well, he has LEARNED to accept it so long as we are outside! Otherwise, he just continuously picks at it! He doesn't really like it...

Ah, I see! I've actually taken Noel and Casey outside to our apple tree (Casey has been flighted so she no longer goes out). One of the budgies and bourke have also been outside but they've been in cages.




Charlie is flighted so he gets the harness... Casey used to be clipped but now that she's not she doesn't get to go outside unless in a cage (which I don't really do). Noel can't fly (better luck teaching a dog or cat to fly than her!) so no worries there. I've never taken out the other tiels (would be too much hassle), and being that the tiels and budgies are cage-free it'd be hard to catch them all to cage them to take them outside!



Glad you enjoy the photos!!! I hope to take some more today!
