I Love This!


These are little baby orphans who made pals and are buddies now.

I wonder what will happen when they get older? Will they tear each other to pieces? Hope not!

Anyway,this appeals to the 5th grade girl in me! Loves it!

Smarter than most Celebs







I have been lucky enough to go to a "bird nerd" lecture with Dr. Irene Pepperberg, who has done amazing studies with African Grey Parrots.






She has done a 30- year plus study with the parrots. She tried to teach them to distinguish between different sorts of matter, different colors and shapes. Alex could say the answer to her questions most of the time...it was pretty cool.



Check it out if you are interested. Click away: http://www.alexfoundation.org/






If you are interested let me know and I'll post video.

It is pretty amazing but I don't want to bore the non-animal people.
