The downside of birds…

Jul.26, 2006 in General, Parrot, Personal

Originally uploaded by C.K. Sample, III.

Earlier today: Sonja, who was contentedly chilling on my right shoulder, was knocked off by Misha who walked around from my left shoulder and goosed her in the bum. She flew into the side of my nose and scratched me. Note: the glistening in the picture is neosporin (sp?) on the scratch and a small speck on my cheekbone, not any sort of natural C.K.-greasiness.
