On The First Day of Christmas....
Well, my true love did not buy him for me, but Simba, my pet Meyer's parrot (the picture here is not him, but same species) decided to give me a bite today. And he got me GOOD too.
Want to know WHY he bit me? I took him out of his cage this morning and he said "Hi" to me. I said Hi back to him. Then he bent his head down so I could scratch him on his head and neck. I kissed him on the head (picture an image similar to that of Snow White kissing any one of the seven dwarves on the head....but since my bird bit me today, let's go with Grumpy). I only kissed him and did not scratch him on the head like he wanted. I paused for a moment, he paused....then he hissed and bit me hard on the lip. He latched on good and I could feel his beak squeezing my lip 4 times before he finally let go. Yes, he broke the skin and I bled some.
Now I can be compared to that of Mick Jagger. As a friend mentioned to me 'Hey, movie stars pay big bucks to have collagen injected into their lips! You won't have to worry about that!'
