Ceiling Bird

Peanut on the ceiling
When Peanut is closed up in his house and he wants to get my attention — well, face it, when he wants to get out — he'll climb around on the ceiling of the cage, and call out. Loudly. I guess this is the biggest, most noticeable thing he can think of to do. And, it kinda works, since I think it's pretty funny, and usually pay him a bit of attention, even if I don't actually let him out of the cage. It isn't a great photo, but you can click here for a bigger version if you want.

As I said, usually he hangs from the ceiling and yells, but today, when I didn't respond right away, he gave me the silent treatment. He just hung there, upside down, for at least ten minutes. Staring. You know how he tries to Mind Control the people around him. It didn't work though. I didn't take him out of his house until after I ordered three hundred dollars worth of tasty seeds.
