Hobby

Phoenix has two hobbies - chewing blinds, and chewing pasta :) Here's the result of both her efforts :)

LOLOLOL!! Go Phoenix!! :-)
January 24th, 2012  
trashed! hehe like the almost silhouette.
January 24th, 2012  
Oh that's a lot of chewing!!!
January 24th, 2012  
At least she is successful at both!! :-)
January 24th, 2012  
Neat shot. I like the back lighting and almost silhouette of Phoenix. Everyone needs a hobby and it looks like she is good at hers.
January 24th, 2012  
lol! Wow Phoenix must have been very busy all day :D
January 24th, 2012  
Animals! What would we do without them.
January 24th, 2012  
I love this shot!
January 24th, 2012  
She is really good at what she likes to do! I want to be like her! 8D
January 24th, 2012  
Yikes!
January 24th, 2012  
A busy bird!
January 24th, 2012  
wow, so destructive, and here I thought she was sweet and pretty
January 24th, 2012  
Very sweet.
January 24th, 2012  
Pretty bird.
January 24th, 2012  
great capture!
January 24th, 2012  
I've been told parrots' beak is amazingly strong: perfect for chewing and destroying!
January 24th, 2012  
Phoenix pix always make me smile !
January 24th, 2012  
Chewing pasta, lol. Blinds might be a little annoying--kind of like my cats when they like to sharpen claws on my curtains
January 24th, 2012  
I love this composition. Could you come up with window blinds made out of pasta?
January 24th, 2012  
I love seeing pictures of your girls. This picture looks like they are outside. I guess she sitting next to the glass since she on the blind. She about eaten her perch up.
January 24th, 2012  
This gave me a giggle. Great silhouette!
January 24th, 2012  
Multi tasking at its best.... Too funny!
January 24th, 2012  
Awesome
January 24th, 2012  
A very lovely shot... she's definitely a multi-tasker. LOL
January 24th, 2012  
Now that's being determined! Fun shot!
January 24th, 2012  
Awesome!
January 24th, 2012  
OMG they have wrecked that blind.. Amazing how destructive they can be.. You must have a lot of patience :) Fantastic shot :)
January 24th, 2012  
She sounds like quite a handful Alia.
January 24th, 2012  
Aw, cuteee!
January 24th, 2012  
She's lovely!
January 24th, 2012  
LOL This is so cute. Great capture.
January 24th, 2012  
Ha! I love it! Those are what I call awesome hobbies
January 24th, 2012  
haha birds will be birds.
January 24th, 2012  
aww, cutie :) is she outside? and she doesn't want to fly away? :3
January 24th, 2012  
great shot - love the silhouette and that you can still just about see her lovely colours
January 24th, 2012  
Nice shot

@princesicita She's been attacking that blind since she moved in with us 2 years ago :)

@nicolecampbell I guess take pictures of flowers all the time :)

@lbmcshutter We just think of her as an interior designer - she just chews things until they are the way she likes them :)

@kennyw Phoenix is actually less of a handful than Magic - we usually know where to find her and what she'll be up to :) (I think she's actually just making a window seat for herself - she likes to sit up there and preen).

@woot I think the best analogy I've heard is 'parrots are like two-year-olds with power tools' :)

@clarissajohal Thankfully we have no real attachment to the blinds (they came with the house) so we're happy for Phoenix to redesign them to her heart's content :)

@dmariewms Now there's an idea! Wonder how to go about it... :)

@vernabeth She's taken out about a quarter of the blind so far... We do wonder where she'll sit to look out of the window in future years though...

@michelleyoung No patience required - Phoenix decided that the blinds were hers the first time she ever left her cage, so we just leave her to it :)

@izythunder Phoenix is sitting on the blind inside the window, looking out. Both my girls are fully flighted, so they only go outside in their travel cages. They do a LOT of flying around the house though :)

Naughty bird, but you gotta love them anyway. It beats fingers LOL
January 25th, 2012  
Cute
January 25th, 2012  
LOL ya gotta love 'em though:)
January 25th, 2012  
haha, great shot and caption! i agree with rick ... it could be worse
January 25th, 2012  
nice one
January 25th, 2012  
Oh my goodness! She has really done a job on those blinds! Fun/funny shot!
January 26th, 2012  
LOL! My cats climb the curtains. When the sun is shining, you can see little claw holes. :0)
