Don't listen to Carl --- oh, you never do, okay. Yours are easy, as are Sena's. Just need to print them out.

The new ones are a pain now that Design Pro stopped supporting the stand alone app. They now want you to use Design & Print, web based. Mine still works but it is tricky.

Pull her teeth -- okay, never mind. I'll see what I can do.

====================
Hey Carl, you want a lanyard and tags for the birds? I'd like to see that.

Oh sure, I'll let YOU put the one on Mac!!!

I'll guarantee you they'd be shredded in the first 10 minutes. Yesterday was at my sisters for dinner and it was my BIL's b-day celebration. Well, Mac got a hold of the card envelopes and proceeded to shred them into tiny little pieces. Of course Boko couldn't be left out so she got the larger pieces Mac dropped

Hey Carl,

Was reading yesterday where Edgar Allen Poe first considered a parrot to say "Nevermore" in the poem but decided the darkness of a raven fit the poem's mood better.

Was watching a video of a bird (small parrot or parakeet maybe - not real good lighting) singing a song stanza "then the bodies hit the floor". Our dog thought it was someone else in the camper and ran around barking...


I don't recall Mac being very vocal, thought it was just because he was around a crowd. He say much when it's just the 3 of you?

Mac is mostly quiet until he decides to say something. He has a few phrases, he's always on queue (e.g., what he says is pertinent to what's going on). At the Hail of a GC, Mac was quite vocal with the crowd as I had him on a tree away from everyone so he got into the groove on his own. It was funny how often he'd yell when the muties were loudest.

But Boko is the real blabber mouth. Throughout the day she's making some sort of sounds, repeating things from TV like Hey Bert, Hey Ernie (then she laughs). It's sometimes quite hilarious when she gets into a groove.

That sounds very entertaining. Did you ever see the video of a white parakeet meowing as the 3 family cats sat close, facing the bird? Very amusing, those cats were sure bewildered.

Love watching funny videos like that. I know Nola posts a bunch on FB, so she's a good source

Mac has chased my sisters cat out of the room on a number of occasions. It's something to see. Boko will either do a cat meow or dog barking, depending on her mood (she does big dog barking and regular dog barking, I think Clifford the big red dog got to her).

Have you noticed that our fur and feather kids only misbehave when others are around? No one believes that they can be perfect little angels.

That video was hilarious! That bird looked so sure of itself, arrogant even. He'd easily outmatch any of those cats if need be!

Glad you mentioned it. Thanks.

Now look for the dancing cockatiel!
