Oh my goodness, I started checking for the prices on African Grey and they vary according to where they came from. The Cameroon is the most expensive at $950 down to Red Bellie at $350. Dang! African Grey is expensive.
African Greys are not only the best of talking birds but also very highly intelligent. Their ability is to mimic the human voice as well as the sounds in their environment. Though African Grey is expensive as a pet, it is well worth it knowing that their longevity is about 50 to 60 years according to the World Parrot Trust.

African Grey parrots are excellent pets because they are intelligent. They require time and commitment by their owners to provide interaction and constant attention. As you can see in the photo above, the bird has toys so he won't get bored.
If you can afford it, get yourself an African Grey parrot and make sure you have the time to teach him the cool tricks and vocabulary.
It was raining earlier today. I had my coffee and doughnut at the gazebo. Listening to the chirping of the birds is what I like to do in the morning. When I am lounging at the backyard, I always have my iPad and my handy Samsung camera with me if in case there are interesting subjects to capture. Just like this one, an early morning worker!
Such a beautiful thing. From the hustle and bustle of life, we need to stop a bit and see the beauty around us. Today, try something different like going to the beach and walk barefoot on the sand. Enjoy the wind brushes your hair or just take an afternoon snack with your family at the back porch. Enjoy the essence of life and shrugged that worries for few hours. Have a nice Monday everyone.
This is not the first time that I saw turtles on the road in our neighborhood or in Florida for that matter. Motorists usually stopped and let this precious creature pass by. Even when we were in Mississippi, one time a motorist stop on the side of the busy road while others tried to help the traffic and pick up a huge turtle on the road. It stopped in the middle of the road and hid on its shell probably nervous LOL. Good thing it happened on a country road where everyone is not really in a hurry. I just admire people who have the compassion to animals like this one. CUTE!

As you can see, this turtle is not walking slow LOL. He runs!~ See the glide? That's a huge step hahaha. It took me 3 shots only and he is off to the other side of the road. That was really quick! Now, who says turtles are slow LOL ?
Beyond the fence is the Space Coast Regional Airport ... hmmm ... I wonder if he has a flight to catch? LOL

Few cars pass this area that is why; I got the chance to take these photos. In fact, there were only us and one car which was ahead of us. It is exciting to see animals on the wild. Thanks for stopping by.
I am always scared of dogs because when I was in my elementary days, a big dog just attack me and I got bit in my middle torso. It was a huge dog and I was on my knees trying to cover my face and someone saw me struggling and shoo the dog away.
I was crying helplessly and my mom came in rescue. Back home (during those times), pet animals are really watchdogs. It scared burglars away especially when there is a sign of "beware of dogs". Fierce dogs are put on leash and the dog that bit me got away from the leash with the knowledge of the owner. I was at the wrong place at the wrong time.
I am not over it and it's been years. I am very cautious with pet animals and in the house, we do not have any. I do not hate dogs and I think they are cute but, I am always careful when I am around them.
With that being said, most of our friends have pet dogs and I am fond of them too. I like Ernie which is a black dachshund puppy, Happy is a brown poodle, Rocko is a Yorkshire Terrier and Rusty is a labrador which is the only huge dog that I am comfortable playing with.
All of them except Rusty are well taken care of. In fact, their pets are considered as family and the owners are really pet parents. How about you? Do you have pets? Check out Pets Aware Pet Shop and Pet Care for some information that will help you become more aware of your responsibilities as pet owners. Taking care of them, grooming, making sure that they are happy because in return, they will love you unconditionally.
