Bird squee and related animal squee-age

[twasadark]

Hello lovelies!  Some piccies from my animal kingdom below.  

Hubby's idea of something funny:



BFBG (Big Fat Black Cat, aka Hektor, looking innocent.



But wait!! This photo reveals HIS TRUE INTENT.  Which is ripping off hunks of the cardboard box!! 



All the cats, the turtle, and the goldfish enjoying a Southern California day:



Close up of the turtle sunning herself:



Me handfeeding one of the cockatiel chicks.  It's about 4 weeks old.  And, yes, it's supposed to be this ugly.  LOL.



Close up of the food.  YUM YUM:



Happy in their nest:

I had to call in my sister Talitha, who is a huge Cockatiel lover, to see those pics. And she goes "aw" and "ooh" and obviously thinks they're adorable, and says in this very loving voice, "Ugliest little buggers ever!"

You have a fan.

My dad breeds cockatiels and I always find the babies amusing as hell when they're in the fugly stage (basically, the whole time they're babies lol).

The babies are so cute! And they aren't as ugly as the baby bird one of my co-workers (from a hundred years ago) had. It was some kind of amazon parrot and it looked like an alien. At least your babies look like birds.... and they do look happy. AWESOME!!!

You've got such cute critters. That's a big turtle! Reminds me of the snapping turtle my Pops brought home from a fishing trip.

It is hard to believe they grow up so pretty when they're so ugly when they're small, but it's true! Thank you for the lovely piccies!

My black cat loves ripping hunks out of boxes too! it's like his favorite activity besides maybe jumping on my lap and pacing back and forth restlessly XD

I laughed at the first picture

Awwwwww! They're all so cute! And, LOL at Hektor eating the cardboard. My cats do that.

Ha! You know, I've had an Amazon.com box sitting on a table for weeks now cause every time I look up one of the cats is asleep or playing in it, and I kinda feel bad throwing away their box. lol
