December's POTM theme is Celebrate!


Whether it is Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Yule, St. Lucia Day, Fiesta of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Omisoka, or any thing you celebrate, we want to see your pictures!
Birdies who don't celebrate one of the holidays are welcome to enter their pics with something red or green. We'd love to have every bird included this month!
Please feel free to enter your other pets celebrating as just for fun entries! (They won't be eligible to win, but we'd love to see them!)
As always, safety first when taking pictures.

Photoshopping is allowed for this one!
The contest will run until December 28, and a poll for voting will be up on the 29th. Winner will be announced on January 1.
The winner will receive a Supporting Membership for a year, and their photo will be on the front page for the month of January.



Here are a few examples:

A huge thank you to April (Kiwibird) for allowing us to use her beautiful picture of Kiwi in the holiday spirit!

This one was Photoshopped for me a couple of years ago, featuring Ekko and Chazzie. (They were never in the same room!)

Great holiday theme, Terr! I'm looking forward to the glimpses we'll get into the holiday traditions of our international community of members! And, of course, how their beautiful birds partake in/disrupt said traditions! Lol!
 
Great job on the December contest, Terry! I am also looking forward to lots of entries!
 
Imagine my horror when my dog Pinkie (who is a sporty little tomboy girl) received this ridiculous outfit for Christmas last year from my wife. Look how unhappy she was. It was fashion abuse.

Further evidence of the depravity: caught in action!! Look how embarassed the little thing was!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And in related news, Ms. Kentuckienne offered this improvement, in which my little hound is magically delivering beer to me. I think we can see that Ms. K. has some odd ideas... and I LIKE 'EM!!!

Rival, those pictures are awesome! Thank you so much, I needed a smile today:)
 
I'm choosing a page from the Scrapbook for this month.
The year was 1995; the Rickeybird was 11; I was 43.
Season's greetings, y'all!

Perfect pick, Gail, and you and RB still look exactly the same!
Maggot, that cracks me up every time I think about it.
 
Thank you, Terry!
And yes, I dress that little dog up every chance I get and I'm not stopping. I'm already planning an Easter outfit... I'm sure you'll get pictures and whining from Rival when the time comes.

Looking forward to that!
 
She decided the bird on top of the Christmas tree wasn't looking too good, and took it's place. She is the real star of the show after all! :D

Ha! She is looking at that bird like, why are you in my spot?
She is definitely the star of the show!
 
Awww, No Name is adorable!

I have been keeping Lucille far away from the nativity scene, but with the way she eyes Baby Jesus, I am thinking I should just get my camera phone ready, release the queen, and let her prove that "Lucille" is just one small step from "Lucifer." Hm...
