"It's raining, it's pouring
The old man is snoring
He went to bed, and bumped his
head
And couldn't get up in the
morning
Na na na boo boooo"
Oh it's been overcast all day, but I dived in the pool and it was so warm I couldn't believe it. I have this theory that the water's warmer if you don't touch it, just dive right in. Kinda like my theory on life, I guess.
Good things never last, though (nothing ever does so that's kind of an irrelevant thing to say), so after a good fifteen minutes or so we heard the thunder-claps in the distance.
So I got out, and went to shower.
Some grey parrot things are nesting in our thorn tree, much to the supreme delight of the whole family. My sister says they're African Grey Louries, or something like that - I'll have to check.
When I came out the shower it was pouring. No exaggerations. Or should I say it is pouring - I only came out the shower ten minutes ago.
My heart is aching for the birdies.

Yes Laila please try to take some pictures and post them.
Rain is not good for nesting I think but they manage, please don't worry.
Thanks for stoppingby Laila
Even parrots flock to see you??? Not only bloggers???
Candace and Rauf - you'll be glad to know I managed to get some phots today! I trekked round the garden for hours without a bird in sight but as dusk drew closer they returned home (much to the dismay of my two dogs!.
They are def Grey Louries and def nesting in our tree! This is great :)

Awesome! Thanks!! I'm really looking forward to seeing them! :o)
You dove into the pool, then it started to rain, then you took a shower, and now it's pouring outside. What's with the water theme?
strange, Walter, never noticed till you pointed it out!
