I am SO happy theres been some nice weather lately and Kiwi can come out. Today he got a good bath and to dry out in the sun. Naturally, I couldn't *not* chase him with my camera. I thought the pics came out fabulous and just had to share (keep in mind he's semi wet, thus the funky feathers) :D I may need to go into a second post on this one:eek:

He reminds me of a wild parrot in this one​

And off into birdie dream land​
 
Aww he is cute! It sure is a perfect day for bathing out doors! :)
 
Great pictures! You can tell he knows what a handsome boy he is in that next to last picture. And he certainly deserves a rest after his big day:)
 
Oh, so handsome! I especially love the last picture.

He's so cute when he naps on my leg. Though, my leg will start to go to sleep really bad, yet I don't want to move because he's soooooooo cute!

@Getwozzy- did Chile get some belated birthday sunshine today:)
 
She gets it through her window! Lol

She is currently terrified of outside because there is a big pine tree in our yard that red tails perch in- and their nest is on the other corner of the property ...and lots of crows and blue jays are always around....and I don't have a travel cage for her yet :(

But she does enjoy sitting on her window perch :)
 
Killer pics kiwibird.
 
Beautiful pictures, April! Kiwi truly glistens in the sunlight! :D Gosh, I can't wait for Mother Nature to bless us with some decent temperatures already. :32:

I hope you get some good weather soon too:). Do your birds all like to go out in the summer and get baths? I know outside baths are one of the biggest joys and amazon can have, what about your macaws?
 
I always enjoy seeing pics of your Kiwi, his feathers are stunning, so shiny and bright! :D And I agree that he appears to know just how handsome he is!
 
Gorgeous pics! I especially love the very first one! Classic model "hair" flashing shot! Lol! Sweet!
