The wild green parrots of Los Angeles are visiting my neighborhood lately. I stopped to watch a flock that landed yesterday in a magnolia tree. A lady who was walking her chee-wa told me they became wild after the Bel-Air fire in 1961. They are not native and were being kept in a private zoo there, escaped, multiplied and became “naturalized” over the years.

That is really interesting. I had never heard of the wild parrots in LA. How many would you say were in the flock you watched yesterday? Are they green all over, or do they have other parrot colors on them?

Hello Everybody, Hello!

I will try to get some pings answered before I need to leave.
I will be absent all day.
I have a dentist appt (cleaning) at 11:30, then
I was asked to work the PTA snack bar this afternoon.
Guess what else .... today is Thursday, so Marissa has AWANA tonight.
Sigh ... it makes me tired just saying it.

Hope everyone has a Terrific Thursday.

Good morning all! We're still under a deep blanket of white and today deep blue skies are overhead. It's so bright you have to wear sunglasses indoors.

Hey! You ARE back! LOL!

Ours is sunny and cool. It’s supposed to only get up to 50, but I think it will be closer to the 60s. It’s 41 right now, but still early in the day.

I’ll bet you are ready for spring!
