Parrots & llamas


In addition to swimming, running and walking (usually with llamas), we've found time to visit The Parrot Place -- a refuge for parrots and other birds from around the world. Here's a cool Australian parrot named Digger.

Amber was really excited about cutting ear tags off of Caramel and Coffee. They came from a ranch where they have so many that they're not named, they're just numbered with ear tags. In the black-and-white photo below Amber is putting on Chocolate's halter. He's made much progress, as have the others, with being handled. Today they even loaded in and out of a van, and Chocolate went to the beach.


In other llama news, Jos pulled Amber and Ediza in a cart down the driveway, while Tess (the dog) and Peter (Julie's partner) assisted.
