Parrots - Love the Work Ethic








There are parrots nesting near my office at work. They are loud, and their squawk is unique, so I always know when they are flying overhead. They don't allow you to get too close, and will never go to the ground, even when I spread birdseed all over.
Needless to say, it's hard to capture them with my camera, so I'm always having to zoom in on them from far away.

They like to come into the trees behind the building and break branches off for their community nests. They will work hard on each branch until their tough beaks break it free. I love watching them at work.
It reminds me that something that special is worth the hard work you put into it. It's also a great reminder that working together for a common goal often pays the best rewards.

Hope everyone is doing well and has a great weekend!

Z - Zebra Picture

Yes, we have zebra in West Palm. Well, not exactly in the wild, but in Lion Country Safari, roaming free with the rhinos.

It's neat driving past them, being so close. I just wish it was in the wild plains where they actually belong.
