My white-bellied caique, nicknamed Sunny CrankyPants, has been fraternizing with the natives, Hooded Orioles, to be exact. They are teaching him their call, and hang with him on his fence post. I’m determined to get a picture, but every time I go outside with a camera his buddies take off, and Sunny spends the rest of the day waiting for them to return.

Any suggestions, comments or stories?
