One of these days I'll actually post the pictures I've taken of the lakeside birds, but right now its Quaker time!
But first,

I like to call it: I can has a Krill?

Cosmo's new cage. The cage and stand together are about 5 1/2 feet tall. It's supposed to have a metal skirt, but when we ordered it Fosters and Smith hadn't yet realized that their supplier was packing four flat pieces when it should be two flat and two flanged. So I've got eight pieces of useless black metal and still no shit-skirt(its on its way, but really shit-skirts are not rocket-science).

Cosmo giving me his "Why the fuck were you touching that little monster? You belong to me!" look.

The little monster. Just an average lovebird. Not quite weaned yet so he tends to be loud. There are two others, this is the one who doesn't want to be picked up, but won't get off you after he has been picked up. I'm stuck between giving him a starcon-ish name or just calling him Velcro.

These aren't the droids you're looking for.
With any other parrot this gesture would mean "I want to step up" but with Cosmo it generally means "Come closer, I want to try to bite you."

"Let me ooouuuuuuutttt!" I swear he wants to be eaten by the cats. The birdy pinata had been in his cage for less than 48 hours at that point, and he'd already chewed pieces of it off. But he's less tetchy now that he has it so I'll probably start ordering them in bulk soon.
