At Niagara GorgeCategory: hiking
I had a nice day hiking the gorge with (e:Mike) and (e:libertad). They are perfect for each other. I found some really delicious wild grapes. Hiking the gorge is way easier in the fall than in the spring when I am much more out of shape.

Pears, pears everywhereCategory: food
There are so many pears this year it is unreal.
The bird sat in the tree with me while I collected them. He kept calling to me every 10 seconds when I went a few feet away. Unless I responsed he would freak out.

I think he freaks out cause one of the birds told him about what happened to another bird that "Was Bad" and got eaten ?

He is really like a small kid! I wonder if he knows he is a bird or he just thinks he is one of you.

Complete ingredients list from :::link:::
Aqua
Sodium Chloride
Citric Acid
Fragrance
Limonene
Hydrolized Wheat Gluten
Aloe Barbadensis Gel
that is not bad AT ALL.. except for a 4 that could be essential soap chemicals. I learnt about soap and detergent composition in high school but everything is forgotten now. Old age does that to you.

Clever. What I would like to know if what comprises the anionic and non-ionic surfactants?
But it does look good. Next time, I am getting this.

Bird BathCategory: pets
The bird freaked out when I left the computer where he was perched to take a shower so I decided I would take it with me.
At first he perched on the curtain rod. I kept splashing him and he freaked out until he jumped on my shoulder and got blasted with the shower. At first he seemed scared and ran down my arms but then it was right back up under the water where he seemed to really enjoy splashing and cleaning his feathers.
When it was time for me to soap up I put him on the soap rack where he preened his feathers. Its amazing how much smaller he looked when wet.
Afterwards, I blow dried him while he sat on my shoulder. It was so cute.

I wonder what water is like to a bird? yes it is good to get clean and all but at the same time they need to be able to fly and I would think wet wings and feathers not to mention the added weight would make that tough so.....

On an aside, you have a deadly phone addiction - probably among the 0.0000000000001 % who can't even part with their non-waterproof phones in the shower.

My grammar in comments is getting worse and worse. I think I stop thinking about sentence structure when I start commenting. That leads to all sorts of weird constructions and omissions.
The link is about baby bats were rescued in Australia after a bout of really bad weather. It's not anything like bats at all. More like small puppies in tiny blankets.
looks like a movie prop and not a fan of bats so not following the link....
Take a look: :::link:::
That is a bat. And ew. So. not. cute.
