I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

All your pictures are great but the first parrot pic is stunning!

Yeah Monty is pretty special. That first picture was taken when we were spraying him with water. He just loves getting wet!
Here he is with his girlfriend "Charlotte". They look a bit scruffy when they are wet!:)

It's the color & iridescence that's really brilliant as well as the texture of the birds.

Wow! All of you are so talented. Great photos!!

Hello! I love taking pictures… but instead of posting them all here I'll just link to my travelblog from a few years ago. I went traveling around the world and posted pics and stories for my friends/family to e-travel with me....

Whew! I've only gotten about 1/2 way thru - I plan on finishing, but great job with the blog! How wonderful to have such a life experience - did I read 200 days? The pics are absolutely amazing - where you've been, seen and done. . .
Come on Lottery! I've been waiting so long!

Jen - great photos!
TL - what an amazing trip! Loved your "cliff notes" version - all of the pictures are beautiful. What an experience it must have been. -
Thanks Jill and Nala! Yep, 200 days and 5 continents! It was an amazing trip and pretty exhausting! I'm glad I did it when I did, cause I don't think I'd have the energy to do it now! Plus, I have these two B's now that need me! I could NEVER leave them for that long!
