Built-in blush

I love the name "Noodle". What a prosh name for a bird. The fact he has built-in blush is the best—he’s always saying "You really shouldn’t have…. no. Really?"

Thank you, AWarnack!

P.S., I think we should keep the lil’ piece of crapulence by his foot and not Photoshop it out.

    It’s an apostrophe! What’s this little bird short for?

  4. StormCat says:

    No no, it’s an inchworm…The little bird is saving it for his snack later…

    Rosy cheeks! A friend of mine used to draw everyone, girls, guys with rosy cheeks, until his mom made the mistake of thinking all he drew were girls. He does not draw rosy cheeks anymore.

    “a friend of mine.”
    yeah, whatever, hashi.

    I love birds — we have 7, but no lovebirds (yet). Perhaps it’s an editorial poo — my cockatiel sometimes bombs me if he’s annoyed about something (like how long my dinner is taking to cook and serve to HIM!) He looks healthy and happy!

  13. hashi says:

    Hey, I have to bag on said friend as much as possible; his art bumrushes mine and feeds it to the homeless.

    I am le sucky. :(

  14. Victoria says:

    Yeah! Keep the poop! It’s like he’s blushing that he went for a poo!

  15. finn says:

    hardly, hashi.

    and marty, you are spot-on! Noodle _is_ the Cute Overlord.

  16. Katie says:

    Normally, birds make me think of parasites and crusty feet so I am unable to enjoy them. This little Noodle, however, is superbly cute and didn’t make me think of bird air or anything else disgusting.

  17. Skwerly says:

    Eeeeeeeeee! A wee pinky cheeked birdie! Oh, glorious Monday.

  18. Beth says:

  31. John Salmon says:

    I’m noticing a disturbing shortage of bunnies, kittens, and puppies. Can’t go wrong with The Big (i.e., Little) Three.

  32. Norty says:

    Amen John S… Amen to the bunnies

  33. BenPanced says:

    What a little sweetie! It looks like it’s made of marzipan!

    “Pretty birdie! Pretty birdie! Pretty birdie!
    SQUAWK!”

  35. Noelle says:

    I’ve got *counts in head* 4 of these suckers and *counts again* 11 eggs being sat on total! Lovebirds are LOUD and a PAIN, but of course adorable, and we love them. Le sigh. Ours aren’t this blushing though! We’ve got some sort of crossbred kind.

  36. gnarlykitty says:

    ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i wanna squeeeze it.

    Birds are love! More birds!

  39. Rachel Bz. says:

    What a color scheme! Wow, he’s gorgeous… Damn me for having cats… But hey, I have a rat too (soon to have two more), so maybe I could make it work.

  40. Noo says:

    I’ve made ‘complaints’ previously that prior bird entries haven’t IMHO been cute enough. I think this entry has sorted that particular gripe.

  41. binky says:

    Binky — ASCII art doesn’t really work in TypePad blogs; they don’t seem to allow multiple consecutive “space” characters in a comment.

  45. Twinkie says:

    OMG! IT’S SO CUTE!!!
