Baba Yaga

I have always loved stories about Baba Yaga and her perfect little cottage that walks around on chicken legs. 










*Le Sigh*...It is my dream home! <3

Pionus Pedicure

My sister and I just trimmed Joy's nails for the first time by ourselves. Joy is such a trooper!! I wish I had some fantastic magic treat for her, because she didn't want any of the ones I offered. Joy came to me with her nails very overgrown, and we've been trimming them back a little at a time. Today one was trimmed just a taaaad too short and bled a little, but we had styptic swabs ready on standby. We gave her a break between each foot and she seemed a little bewildered, but happy. She got a good pinch on my finger but not enough for it to bruise. She received lots of praise and scritches and left the ordeal in a good mood, although her feathers got a little messy, hee hee! She is currently asleep on her playstand...the stress must've knocked her out! Lol What a good birdie!

Movie: Bill and Coo

Presenting....The Adventures of Bill and Coo!
Click me! ^

Bill and Coo (1947) - Color - 60 min

This unique live action film features trained birds in a story situation. An entire town is scaled to bird size - complete with popsicle stick picket fences and cardboard signs. Be prepared for lots of bad puns and silliness. The whole movie has a bizarre feel to it that is both charming and disturbing. Nominated for an Oscar - I do not think any birds died while making this film.

Custom Signatures

I have volunteered my services on Avian Avenue to make custom "vintage" signatures for anyone that wants one. There are no limitations, requests just need to list the species of their birds and any preferences they'd like. I will continue to update each time I finish one. Here is what I've created so far:

For Ming-Ming


My siggy

For Dolores
