Birds Part Deux; Salt Lake City

Our new friends, Cari and Greg, invited us over for a BBQ and birdie play date. If you recall our previous post, they have 10 cockatoos of their own. We met them through the local bird store, who put us in touch with them. I don't think Snuggy quite considered it a play date, more like a fright fest. Snug was outnumbered 10 to 1, but managed to survie! (By the way, the only picture of Snuggles, besides the one on her cage, is where she's standing on Cari's shoulder, looking a little unsure.)

Here are a few photos of the craziness:




































Since we are leaving on Saturday, all the Toos' got together and gave Snug a going away present. Cari and Greg make their birds "stuff sock toys" with wooden pieces, rope and a surprise wrapped up inside a sock. Snug wasn't too sure about this at first, its as big as she is. But, here she is giving her new gift a once over.

Thanks, guys, look forward to seeing you all agian in June!
