Sunday Video Bird Blogging

We decided to try out the capability of our digital camera to make short video clips this morning and took a couple short vids of Sunny the Sun Conure. Definitely an amateur attempt, as we have no idea what we're doing (yet), so bear with us on on the clip quality. You can hear several of our parakeets serenading in the background. And you'll see Sunny do one of his tricks -- rolling over onto his back and using his feet to play with a ball. Because he was captivated by the camera, however, he cut the trick short and rushed over to the lens instead. Ham!

What he really loves is for one of us to scratch his belly while he lies there on his back. He's a pure pleasure hound, feathered version. We had to give him a piece of a cashew when he was done being filmed, one of his favorite treats -- a legume reward!
