lately he's been tweeting SO LOUD ITS DEAFENING until i feed him his scrambled eggs for breakfast. its pretty cute. i love it.  and yes, birds eat human food: vegetables, fruit, potatoes, grains, eggs... we basically just share.  i love it, because i hate the smell of pet food. sick.

this morning i decided to have him come eat at the table with me.  i was so enthralled that i forgot to eat my own food and do my morning pages.  i took photos of him instead.  by the time i got to my coffee and oatmeal it was cold.  not an issue though, because LOOK AT THESE----------

when he gets food all over his beak i secretly love it and wish he wouldn't shake it off. glad to have this photo :)  AND! when he tilts his head up like that? so cute!!! he just looks around. curiosity seems to be one of his top strengths,

us in all our morning glory,

each day we get the hang of each other a little bit more,
today has been a good day,
yesterday all he wanted to do was bite me and hiss at me.
no clue what i did that made him so protective of his space.
but hey.
i'm learning to give him space when he needs it,
which is often.
so much seems to be going on in that teensy little head of his.

and i've realized lately that cosmo has many many fans.
you guys are loving him.
you want more photos of him.
you facebook stalk him--- via me.
i love this.
he's worth stalking.
so, continue.
glad to give you a little ammo today,
shan :)
