Pictures of Michael our cockatiel.

This is
Michael our cockatiel, after a little bath under the tap while I was cleaning my
teeth. We do not clip his wings. We do let him fly around outside - and once
some crows chased him way up into the clouds. For a whole day we couldn't find
him. Just before sunset, we took one last drive up the mountain to try to find
him. Julie thought she heard him chirping, and when we got out of the car he came
flying from 500m away. A narrow escape, but he still has his little jaunts in the
big blue sky.
