Pepper is still moulting. It's a bit blurry because she won't stand still but you can just see how tatty she is poor darling.

Poor dear, hopefully she feathers out soon!

Adelaide almost never has humidity. Or snow. It's a very dry heat but the temps usually go quite high.

Canberra is the same.

I may wish to consider this so there is no return of the Le Rat.

You know Anna and I nicknamed Josh, Le Poof. Every time he sees Rex his tail poofs up!

They are!
With the family all having colds I haven’t been as snap happy so I’ve just gone out and gotten some shots (some are reserved for mugs Monday )

Bokky with her new feathers coming in. They are a beautiful darker brown. Still a bit to go before she’s done but going well.

Snow seems to be finishing her final growing up moult. Her tail feathers are all black now whereas she used to have white outlines on them. Fingers crossed it means laying soon

Then this happened. Belle loves to get on my back or shoulder if I’m in the right height range. And here was me thinking she was shy with me because I haven’t been hanging out like in school holidays

Sorry to flood your thread

I loved seeing them! Thanks for the update

 

[MaryJanet]

Canberra is the same.

At least Adelaide is coastal with lovely beaches. I don't know how I'd cope with a hot inland summer. apart from the hard summers I love my city.

Awww does she seem herself in her attitude or a little off?

 

[MaryJanet]

I know of nothing that will keep them away. Lilly spent years trying to drive them off. if that wont work nothing will.

Did she ever catch one? Peggy did once but it got away, leaving her with a mouthful of feathers to spit out.

 

[MaryJanet]

She is a daredevil that one!

She really is! Following Ivy's lead, Janet has progressed to examining the new bottles without getting too close.
