A New Fan - literally! This male King Parrot arrived under a new patio cover and was super friendly. Had some flax seed in the fridge so I gave him some. To make the start of a cool day, following 42 Celsius days , even more special he pecked on our door window. I opened it and he came in side for a look around. What a gregarious chap!
