St. Patty's Day Dinner

So, just got back from Andrea's St. Patty's Day family dinner. Am stuffed with delicious corn beef and cabbage and all sort of other goodies. Mmmhhhh. More importantly, I was able to record Ivory, Andrea's mom's pet bird.* Ivory deserves her own 24/7 streaming video/sound website. She's the craziest bird I've ever seen. These are the things I know about Ivory - I'm sure there are countless stories about her...

-Dances when you sing Kumbaya
-Was briefly addicted to coffee
-Takes imaginary bird baths and plays with imaginary water
-Is in love with Jake
-VERY TALKATIVE - says things like "Poor Ivory" and "Good Girl" and "Red Rum" (last one compliments of Kate)
-Cuddles
-Picks off her own feathers when she's nervous (that part is a little gross...)

Anyway, you can hear her below talking to Jake. Unfortunately she's not saying much, but you get an idea. She's fairly mellow in the clip - usually she's about ten times more "outgoing."
