Midnight Magic by alia_801

Midnight Magic

Well, not quite midnight. But she was already in bed by the time I was home late from work, so I had to get a pic with the flash... hence the terrible focus. Go back to viewing the thumbnail and it looks ok!

PS Thanks for all the get well wishes. I'm still coughing and sneezing - but had to go in to work today anyway as there's noone to cover for me... Feel a bit better anyway.

Your birds are so beautiful

Looks great to me :)

She's keeping an eye on you anyway.

Nice of her to stay awake and wait for you - It wouldn't be life with Alia if there wasn't a camera at some point in Magic's day!

Hello there gorgeous! The flash really brings out those amazing colours. Glad to hear you are feeling a little bit! I hope you feel much better soon.

Cute shot. I'm chuckling at your saying to go back and look at the thumbnail. :) Glad you are feeling a little better, Alia.

Nice shot. Was she happy you woke her? Glad you feel a little better, but I hope you feel 100% better soon.

Ha! I bet poor old Magic wondered what on earth was going on. ;)

For a cold I always use the old sailors medicine : A grog . The juice of a lemon and a eat-spoon of honey in a glass completed with boiling water .If you like add some gin to it and then ... go for a good night sleep.
She looks like she want to say, : What`s happen here. ? Funny

Unusual to see them in the cage.

what a look

Neat with the dark blacks though.

@humphreyhippo I think my first few photo attempts when she was younger are what gave her the current instinct to attack the camera at every opportunity!
@prttblues I don't think she ever actually sleeps... any time we walk into the kitchen - night or day - she pops out to see what's going on... @pyrrhula Thanks for the recipe - I'll have to give it a go!
@http365proj They're generally out and about during the day, if we're home. They go to bed at sundown though, but they don't like the flash much, so I don't often take nighttime shots of them.

Great contrasts.

She's looking at you as if to say, "Hey! Do you mind? I'm trying to sleep here!" Hope that cold has cleared up by now.

@olivetreeann Thanks! the sneezing has stopped. Now I just have no voice and an annoying cough... At least I feel human again!
