F***in' Wildlife!

Jim decided not to hit the casino for his birthday, so instead, we went out to 183rd St. & Maple to the Tanginyka Wildlife Park.
It was amazing how close you could get to some of the animals. A lot of stuff was closed off because they're still working on it, but we did get very close to some of the wildlife....a very sweet camel, the giraffes, and the lemurs.
And, Austrailian Parrots. Oh, yeah, they were pretty.........
But things turned ugly for me very quickly - as more than 5 at one point, decided the product in my hair was WAY tastier than the apple cider/apple sauce they gave us to feed them.
If Heather was there, she would have flipped the F*** Out! They were coming from EVERYWHERE and headed straight for my head.I shit you not, it was frightening, and what did Jimbo do?! Laughed histerically while I got my scalp pecked and my hair pulled. By the time we got out of that bird area, there was NO product left in my hair. I'm not generally scared by birds, but this was a first for me. I had them climbing into the hood of my jacket, even.

At any rate, it was a nice day, and tomorrow evening, Jimbo and his twin brother will get their SUPER FANTASTIC BIRTHDAY PRESENTS from me, courtesy of
our own Jamie O.
