Princess Bourke apparently not impressed with my music abilities!
Everyone is a critic! Princess Bourke apparently doesn't think much of my piano playing skills - of course, she's definitely not alone in that! I better stick to my art!

Up Close with a Fearless Bourke!
Our female Bourke is so fearless - and she loves technology! Here she is exploring the video camera, deciding if it gets to stay in her dominion or not. -And look at her beautiful coloring - like a sunset in bird form!

New Bourke Parakeet Joins Family!
This is an amazing process, to add a new member - a new BIRD member - to our cozy family. We wisely took a video of the first meeting of our original Bourke Parakeet and our new little fella. It's fascinating to see how the original bird flies to the top of the new bird's cage and crouches there, peering at him very closely.

Having said that, our original bird protested at the thought of sharing her cage with a new roomate just yet. Here she is, making quite sure we know which perches are HERS and NOT to be shared:
However, as long as our new bird stays in his own abode, all is peaceful and well. Our Princess clearly wishes to be the solo tenant of her castle for awhile longer, but we can tell she is happy to have a neighbor! Here is the cozy state of our new family of an adorable, clown-faced Chihuahua-Papillion-Pomeranian muttsicle, a sweatheart of a Leonberger dog who loves to chew on his toys on the couch, and our two side-by-side birds, all content to hang out together:
This is my bliss, all the happy animals together sharing quiet time while I work on the computer or on my art, with a view of the gardens - the only thing that makes it better is having my patient husband around too.
-And people always say my art looks so happy - THIS is why :) I am so grateful for these moments!
