I just saw my first swallow, swooping here and there.  Summer has officially arrived.

Yippee !

Hi I’ve just set up a Tumblr account – go see HettyCharlieRuffles.

A sunny bank holiday – hooray – Hetty here and I’m taken outside in my cage as I am fully flighted you see – and if I fly too high I would be disorientated and lose sight of my fabulous human, for whom I have much love.  As you can see I was doing acrobatics and everything.  I know in the 1st image it looks like I have grown a bunch of feathers on my head, but I can assure you it is a shrub in the background.

Look I really an all of 15 inches tall.  No laughing at my fluffy pantaloons (legs).

I do this action when my human stretches her arms up whilst yawning or exercising. He! He! He!

Hetty flew and landed as shown – quite the expert at landing on a spot.  Looks quite arty in an ironic way.

Well I have finally started a cross stitch featuring the one and only Hetty.  I hope it comes out ok.  As is my normal behaviour – I have more than one project on the go so I will keep you posted.

 

 

 

Hi, just completed the Proud Peacock – such stunning colours.  It is on even-weave fabric not aida.  Took quite a while to do, but really proud of it.

The Egyptian Princess is half cross stitch on pre-printed fabric.  Rather like colour by numbers when painting.  Slightly easier to do than counting crosses all the time.

Hope you like

Hetty – very soggy bird – going to fly around to dry wings now!!

 

 

Hi, Hetty here – I’ve posed for some new pictures.  I think this one on the left shows my features the best.  I am a Meyer’s parrot and my ancestors are  from the African continent (I am British born).  I am smaller than the African Grey but my bite is just as good, though I do not impose such an act unless provoked or hormonal (it’s my age – I am a grouchy teenager after all).  I love sitting on my human’s shoulder and stealing kisses.

Well that’s my little Birdy Byte for today, don’t fly away I will be back soon.

Time for snuggles!  Peck Peck
