Nice photo,it reminds me of the time a chickadee landed on my wife's head while we were feeding them in the Broadview hts metro parks reservation on a sundy during the month of January.They have sunday mornings where you can come and hand feed then during Jan and Feb. I just wish I could have taked a pic of that one.

Weegee's favorite place to perch is on people's heads. Seriously! It puts him in a "dominant" position and he starts feeling very superior. He looks pretty happy up there on Liam's blond tresses. A minute longer and he would have started nesting! Cuties.

Love love love the bird! What kind of bird is Weegee? And how old?

(Liam is a cutie too! :) )

I think Weegee is about 6 years old? Honestly, I have no idea. Nylonthread has had him for ages, I think!

Weegee is a Senegal Parrot (poicephalus family). He's 10; easy to remember for us -- we bought him right after our wedding! Wikipedia sez Senegals have been known to live up to 50 years as pets. He's adorable with me, but HATES Monkeyrotica.

50 years. Wow. Love Weegee :)

Thanks for the info.
