"I'm looking for a friend....I'm looking for YOU!"

Our parrot Harold loves to watch childrens television in the morning.  We allow him one hour of PBS Kids programing on Mondays through Fridays so he watches Curious George first and then Sid the Science Kid (and yes, he is sad on the weekends, coz they don't play then!).

He just loves all the noises - especially the high pitched ones - and joins in squalking and singing and strutting around his cage.

So I am in and out of the kitchen when these are playing - but of course, not watching them! However, I away seem to hear Sid the Science Kid sing this one song......  Every morning,  when he gets to school  and is in the playground he "sings":

"I'm looking for a friend.... I'm looking for YOU!"
and each time, he finds a friend!  Good old Sid.

This latest bird that I made is also looking for a friend.  He's a big bird - 2 inches from tip of beak to tail - much bigger than I normally make - and I think he's looking for YOU!

I haven't named him yet... maybe he should be Sid?  What do you think?

Oh, Oh. Look what I found - Sid's song on Youtube! Now you can all see!

New website launched! Take a look.

I've just redesigned and launched my new website www.birdlandcreations.com

I've built all my previous sites for myself and others using iweb, the mac web builder software. It's easy to use but really isn't very good for search engine optimization - so I bite the bullet and built my new one on Rapidweaver. I enjoyed it. I like the challenge and all the design features.......

Anyhow, I hope you'll go and take a look. Here's a preview. Click on the link at the top of this post to see more.


I've included a page in German and will add one in French too, to welcome my lovely customers from Europe. Even though the whole site isn't translated, I'm hoping they will appreciate some information in their own language.

And to encourage you to see more, I'm offering 50% off my "if friends were flowers, I'd pick you" earrings. You can buy them on the site for $40 - and hopefully it will then be chance for me to see if all the behind the scenes set up is working OK.


Let me know what you think.
