LookingForValue

Boo climbing his first ladder. Drinks water by himself and starting to also feed himself with some help. Wings working well, hasn't figured out how to take off yet.

A few weeks ago we discovered this little fella on the bottom of our aviary. It seems he may have been pushed out of the nest. Not knowing who the parents were and worrying that further mishaps would befall him, we decided to remove him. Hand rearing became a thing though usually with a bird this young, an expert needs to do this. However, we had rescued another one, possibly his full sibling a couple of years ago so had some idea. Over the next couple of weeks, Boo as we called him, still had his eyes shut and we were worried. A trip to a specialist avian vet was required and he was found to have thrush, a common occurrence with young birds. His crop was flushed out and he was injected with fluids as he was dehydrated. Jodie and I were on bread and water that week having spent the grocery money. Boo continued to grow and as Jodie and my faces were imprinted on him, we were seen as his parents. He squawks when he hears our voices at 5am each morning and he sits on Jodie in a blanket when she gets home from work. He loves his cuddles. He has started drinking water by himself, he loves his water. We are trying to wean him off hand feeding and he will go into a larger cage this weekend so he has more room to explore and learn to fly.

Form comments are like jockey comments, never listen to them. Gore race 5 24/9/23 IDEAL DREAMS (K Chowdhoory) - Knuckled leaving the barriers and shifted out crowding RADIANT REACH. When questioned regarding the performance of favoured runner rider could offer no tangible excuse for the disappointing run. CHRISTOPHE VERMEER (S Wynne) - Over-raced when leading through the early to middle stages. Both horses fought for the lead for most of the race clear of the field. Ideal Dreams was under pressure at the 200m and jockey eased her. Not unexpected really.

Finally MTV shows a decent band for once and they blow it away.

I used a free one last year but haven't had success since. Don't really need to access anyway, have everything I need here

Have always been blocked here in Australia.

Been waiting for the whole concert to be posted.

Pau leaves her drums and does lead vocals, her drum teacher taking over drums.

Another from the brilliant Teatro Metropolitan concert just released

There's proof you got there, the horizon slopes downward.

My yearly blood test/urine test came back perfect. Losing weight, getting cholesterol down, glucose well down and my type 2 diabetes is in remission (2 years now). Blood pressure down. Had to go to podiatrist and I am above average for blood flow in feet. Only thing I wish to get up is my betting account balance. Not bad for an old fella.

OK, no interest. Will delete.

Happy Birthday Jen.
