It's Shelagh and her special needs brother Chance again, showing you that life is better with your bestie!

Could they make it any more obvious that they're siblings? These two were reunited again today after we brought Chance home from his god-aunt's care while we were away on vacation. Chance needs round the day care, so he has to spend time away from home when we're away; and Shelagh spends her days with the big flock.

Chance has definitely missed his emotional support sister, and he doesn't hesitate to ask for more kisses when he feels neglected. These two warm my heart every day. ❤️

You said what? That your two budgies make a lot of mess? I'm here to one up you, cuz this is the stuff I can gloat about. 😂

First thing I do after I return from travels is tend to the birds while my spouse tends to the other animals. He gets done before I do, because these birds are MESSY. Especially when they sync their seasonal moults. This was what I swept up after 3 days of the floors being neglected.

Don't worry, the birds themselves weren't neglected. The pet sitter isn't expected to clean up as frequently as I do, for reasons that are obvious.

If I have to choose between shitting myself or using a bathroom, I'm going to use the bathroom.

I am embarrassed, but beyond that, I'm frustrated at the overreaction. I've got anxiety around my IBD always and I can't eat out like a normal person. I am always in the mindframe that I have to use the restroom if I'm eating out. It's not the end of the world. 2/10 I'm fine.

Was on a lunch break with my husband. Had a good Italian meal at a restaurant. Just before I finished my meal, I felt the urge to go. Nothing new. I excused myself to the restroom. The restrooms are just a single male and a single female units with a toilet and a sink. Of course the men's was occupied 🤦. The women's wasn't. I went in there to do my business. Not moments after I sat down, I started hearing knocks at the door. NOT a good way to get me to hurry. My body freezes from shock and everything stops midway. But it'll resume once I get up until I'm done. So I let them stay pissed off.

I finished, washed my hands. Kept my head down and opened the door. There were 2 people (one was a staff member) frowning and staring me down. Like I've punched their German Shepherd's great granddaughter's pet cat. Fuck me for having diarrhea. What was I expected to do? Shit in the hallway and make everything worse for everybody?

If this happens again, I'll make the same choice again. It's not a big fucking deal. Women use men's restrooms all the time and nobody gives a flying fuck. We understand. But God forbid I need privacy to do my business and get on with my day.

We paid the bill and rushed out the door because I was humiliated. Fuck me. 🤦

Telephoto lens recommendations for Canon E0S 80D for long distance bird photography please?

Wanting to photograph wild birds from great distance during my visit in Australia. I use a Canon EOS 80D. Seeking recommendations for lenses that could help me get shots of birds in flight or hanging out. My budget is under $3,500.

I'm comfortable with purchasing from Canon or other compatible brands, and other adapters/attachments to get close shots from far distance. I'll require instructions on how to set those up if it'll be more complex than just mounting a single lens, as I'm not very experienced with lenses outside of kit lenses and a prime lens.
