Whew!

A LOT got done in my classroom today. In fact, with the exception of the lettering on two bulletin boards, I'm finished with it. That gives me two days to work on lesson plans. Good job!

Only two short meetings today, thank goodness. Tomorrow and Monday are totally free, at least for right now. I should be able to get copies of the autobiographical project done and a couple of weeks worth of lesson plans.

A co-worker brought his fourteen-year-old son to work today. James brought his Pineapple Conure with him. Talk about FUN! There wasn't much opportunity for interaction, but the bird did agree to sit on my finger for a few moments. It rode around on James's shoulder all day...so cute. Finally, there were a couple of minutes when James nor I were working like Turks so I took advantage and snapped a few pictures of the bird. I hate the lighting was bad, and I really hate I didn't get a picture of James, but oh, well. ;) Besides, three of the four pictures I took were blurry. :(

Meet Tango...

What a beautiful little bird!

I THINK that the kids here were all in school today... well except at the middle school in Chesterton that got hit by the tornado last night...

Tango IS beautiful. :D

Our kids don't begin until Tuesday. I'm ready...or I will be when I get the lesson plans done. ;)

Tango is a pretty bird!

James said he's working on teaching him a few words. I'd like to hear Tango say, "Pretty bird." :D

What a cutie! Except for the colour, he reminds me of Paula's Pesto who is a Quaker parakeet. I love Tango's colours!
The light is just fine in the picture. It looks very natural!

I wish the other pictures had been clear. One was a full side view of Tango showing off all his colors. :D

Tango is gorgeous, and I'm not a pet bird person. Enjoy your free day bits, as I am enjoying mine.

I was surprised to see James walking outside with the bird on his shoulder! But Tango seemed very content. :D

If I can get past the room set-up, I'll be home free. :D

What kind of parrot is Tango? He is so pretty.

[deltamiss.livejournal.com]

He's a Pineapple Conure. When he fluffs his neck feathers, the look just like a pineapple. :D

I wish the pictures of his whole body had been clearer. He really is very colorful.

I am a bird lover and have a parrot of my own .... about the size of TANGO. I had never heard of a Pineapple Conure until a couple weeks ago when I went to the pet shop for FOOD for my parrot .... there were two very sweet Pineapple Conures sitting in a cage .... following my every move. It doesn't take much for me to FALL IN LOVE with these birds .... so I high-tailed it outta there FAST!!!!

TANGO is beautiful ....

Then you learned about them a couple of weeks before I did. Hahahahahaha! Tango introduced me to the species.

He is very beautiful! :D
