a green parrot with an orange beak in a tree (close up)
a selfie with a green parrot on my shoulder
He lands in the tree outside my house and calls out to me, every day. He’s a free bird but he goes home to my neighbour Maddie’s house every evening. I love his visits. #LifeInAThaiForest

A green eclectus parrot with a large curved orange beak sitting on a human hand and looking into the camera.
Bershimmer has been especially friendly this week, normally he won’t get on my hand, but this week I can’t get him to leave. His human, Maddie, says he’s been in mating mode, so that explains all the kisses he’s been giving me. I love having a free bird that comes to visit. #LifeInAThaiForest

A green eclectus parrot on a branch in a tree, eating a dried strawberry that I shared with it
A green parrot looking very happy eating a freeze dried strawberry
I’m now able to go outside and sit on my front porch and feed Bershimmer who I confess I have missed these past four months. So glad to be mobile again. #LifeInAThaiForest

a photo of my recovery room which is just a small area between the upper and lower levels. The photo shows a strip of rainbow light on my white comforter coming from a film on the windows. There is a large tv showing a fireplace.
a photo of a cute albino chihuahua named Monkey - she has her head tilted looking at the camera because she heard the shutter click.
A slow recovery doesn’t seem so awful when you have puppies and rainbows on the daily. #LifeInAThaiForest

Rows and rows of patients waiting to be seen at the hospital. It’s very crowded.
Back at the hospital for my ortho appointment waiting for my number to be called when suddenly two pigeons flew overhead through the length of the waiting area and out the other side. #LifeInAThaiForest

A green parrot in a tree outside my house
A close-up of the green parrot eating a dried strawberry with his Claude foot wide open as he begins to grab the strawberry
Bersh kept calling me and every time I went outside I couldn’t find him. On the fifth call, I finally found him in a different spot than he usually lands. I gave him a strawberry and he held it carefully so he wouldn’t drop it. Check out the open claw. #LifeInAThaiForest

A green eclectus parrot on a tree branch with dried strawberries on a nail below him
The green parrot leans down to eat the dried strawberries
Bershermer flies to the tree outside my door and calls out to me. He really likes the dried strawberries that I have been saving for him. I push them on a nail in the tree so they don’t fall down. #LifeInAThaiForest.

My happy friend Henry at a garden table laden with grilled sourdough sandwiches, a pineapple/ginger kombucha and fresh mulberry with soda.
The garden restaurant with exterior seating among the trees.
The main restaurant with glass window walls.
The best sourdough sandwich I've ever had! Pesto/chicken/cheese perfectly melted and the most perfect crispness of the grilled bread. Also: pineapple/ginger kombucha and fresh mulberry with soda. It’s a cool little place called Artisan Sourdough by Apple. #LifeInAThaiForest

a window film that looks like etched glass through which we see the outline of a tree, but it looks like a Gustav Klimt painting.
The tree outside my window looks like a Klimt when viewed through my new window film. #LifeInAThaiForest

Sliding glass doors with a window film that is iridescent and filters garden lights from the outside
Fireworks, disco lights or galaxies are the vibe. I love my new window film with the garden lights shining in. #LifeInAThaiForest

a fly with a big red eye is rubbing its forelegs together while standing on a bare, and hairy, leg.
Most people swat flies that land on them. I take their photo. #LifeInAThaiForest
