Cockatiels At the Vet

Poor Oreo. I took her to the vet on the 4th of July because she had not been herself the last few days and I noticed she was dragging one of her wings. She must have hurt it in the cage somehow but I am not sure how she did that. It made me and Tony feel so so sad to see her miserable. Sleeping a lot. Not moving around much or eating. I'm glad we decided to take her in to the vet, even though it was on a holiday!

Utah State Fair

Got a free ticket to get in to the fair by a guy handing them out which was nice of him! It was only $5/person to get in on the opening day of the fair anyways. We also got free parking and parked right across the street - so good! 

Started out with going to The Taste of Utah. Ahh my hands were so full of samples that I did not hardly get any pictures but here are a few...

Got to sample pizza, some gluten free food, taffy, ice cream sandwiches, meat, chips, Apple Beer! a drink they serve at Tucanos and more...

There seemed to be a lot more people than last year!

From the burrito table..pretty delicious and kind of spicy in my mouth

Then we went to the free concert - the band Parachute performed. I really like their music!

Waiting in line

He climbed up so high!

The band reflected in my watch

This clown was making us laugh so much (in the white shirt) by mimicking people

We could not stop laughing!

He clipped a string on some guy's shirt with a clothespin and pretended to walk the guy in the black shirt. Haha!

 Then I spied some birds so we went and Tony talked to a guy holding a hawk for awhile. I admired this pretty white bird

Then we went in to the building and I got a free owl poster. Heck yes!

Sadly we missed the show at 7pm with the owl that flies over the audience. Might have to go to the fair again to see that!

There's an owl on my head!

Now I am a mountain lion cub I guess

 Topped off the night with walking through a few of the exhibition buildings and getting cotton candy. Fun times at the fair!

Tracy Bird Aviary

This is one of my favorite places to go in SLC. We took Tony's parents here after we went to Thanksgiving Point. So much walking but we managed it!

Owl Forest! My favorite part of course ;-)

 An owl looking at us

Loved the name of this one...Saw-whet! haha! 

 I'm an owl! Tony is a Toucan

 Eagle in the grass



This was a hawk I think. Pretty big!

scritch the pretty bird!

 Some cool flamingos!

 On our way back to the car, there was a festival going on at the park where the aviary is at. This park is HUGE and I saw a booth doing henna tattoos. Love getting these so much, I dont know why. Tony's mom was interested in getting one too so we both got owls :) I think they turned out great!
