Veni. Vidi. Lavi.

Oi, mates. Not too bad for a crotchety ole trucker, eh? Well, actually... 3 of the 4 people in the household know (and WP REALLY knows) latin. I didn't have to go very far to find the translation.

What does it mean? Well, first let me show you some parrot pics and then you'll get your latin lesson for this century.

I was taking shots of a big ole sulfie up in the top of the tree, when a galah went to land on a branch next to his galah blokette. I had the camera set for the white cockie in bright light, and the galah landed in the shade, hence the bad balance. I *could* fix it, but that'd be cheating.

I did get a couple of nice closeups of the cockatoo though:
