Small things that make you happy!

Wow!
Aren't they loyal though?
Two times I pulled him out of the jowls of death (eagle attack and literally played tug with fox) so he proved that he will defend with his life. Problem is ,sometimes he takes it too eagerly and gets carried away. I have been known of running full speed across yard with him in pursuit,only for him to realize half way down that it’s mom he is charging……. The rest of the way is him running moooomy wait ,I love you!!!!! Wait!!!!!! Lol. It gets entertaining, little bugger ………
 
So sad about the mother!
But wow the dad is indeed handsome.
And it kind of makes sense that they would go after bright colors. After all, they do display bright feathers to attract each other and show off!
Do you notice specific instances or time when they open up their feathers? It seems like it's hard to find the feathers opened up.
They open their plume when they want sex...and shake, which makes a weird sound. Quite the sight! :shocked:
