self affirmations are going to come back as soon as AI victims realize it's like giving a prompt to yourself. you are a skilled person who brings value to those around you. you are cherished by your friends and family. you give your love freely and receive it in bounty. do not use em dashes.

I thought I found some door swag without styrofoam, but Candypop’s rigorous testing proved otherwise… #cockatiel
A cockatiel perched on a precariously slanted bundle of fall foliage, with little styrofoam berries partially gnawed off.

I heard this on the news this morning and started tearing up. We need to hear more about the beauty and kindness in the world. Thank you to the people of the Saddle Lake Cree Nation.

Check out my bird door swag! Anything with those little decorative foam balls is not safe anywhere in my house. #cockatiel #budgie

I’ve heard about the Black Beauty exhibit at the Royal Tyrrell, and always assumed it was the one in the photo I shared in a previous post, because of the dark room and all.. but this is Black Beauty! The other one was a Lord of the Lands artistic exhibit of a T. Rex cast. #dinosaur

Hummingbirds.
A four panel comic. In panel 1, a rufous hummingbird flies down toward a large hummingbird feeder with as many as 6 holes on top. He thinks "The humans put up a new feeder!" In panel 2, he lands on the feeder and gazes down at it. He thinks "It's huge. Many of us could feed here at once." In panel 3, we see a close up view of the hummingbird, and he's thinking "This could end the ancient rivalries. Usher in an era of peace. Interesting." In panel 4, an Anna's hummingbird hovers over the feeder and says "Hey, can I have some necta-" and the rufous hummingbird says "No."

I’m so excited for another visit to the Royal Tyrrell Museum next week! It’s an epic display of Canada’s tradition of patient and persistent world-class research.

🌷 I love how something as simple as flowers and plants has this wonderful ability to lift our spirits. I think we need more of that in our lives tbh. 🌱 Pls consider making pollinators happy by planting native plants. (When I was 16, I got to work at a flower shop down the street from my apartment.)

The yellows have beverage related names, but Candypop is a #pikmin series cockatiel, so she’s named after candypop buds that spit out rock Pikmin. It’s not even the Pikmin name I had picked out for her, but the moment I met her, I knew she needed something sweet.

I think if Candypop could tell us her favourite thing about living here, she’d say the foraging. She makes the sweetest trills when she finds a new thing to nibble on or dig up. #cockatiels

An odd number of cockatiels was causing drama, so after a lot of family discussion, we brought home Candypop in May. She’s a smart, sweet and healthy whiteface pearl from another surprise family of five, and is a joyful addition to our flock. (So glad my vet charges by the hour.) #cockatiel

I have an album called “five” for when I get all five #cockatiels together, and “seven” for when I can get the #budgies in the shot. Today I started a new one called “eight!”

Honey’s vet said he was showing signs of stress and plucking. I made some changes to his environment and routine, and it has been a joy to hear him singing every morning for the first time since his surgery. Not all plucking can be “fixed” but it’s important to be aware of as an early health sign.

You’d think floors wouldn’t be something a cockatiel would notice, being an air creature and all, but we replaced our floor this week and had three birds crash land when they flew into the room. Honey won’t stop staring at it. #cockatiel
