Quicker Parrots? There are such things?These photos are not fair to lovely Deborah, but I had to include them because it included her nasty mean parrot Noka-oi.
Noka-oi is Hawaiian and it means the very best but she is the very very worst bird possible.
I had a certain enjoyment out of not being fair. I got her up early at my friend Jim's request and made her stand up with the parrot. I got her up at 7:40 AM and made her take the photo in her colorful bathrobe. It necessarily had to be her colored bathrobe, which I actually like very much.
I thought it important to include the second smaller image of Deborah with the bird that I took first because I had the image that had to include a usual gray day in San Pedro as a kind of backdrop. Behind her is one of the stinky-est points of pollution in the world: the port of Los Angeles!
