Hi Everybody!
Hope your week is going well! the weather here has improved and spring is back, which is very enjoyable. Today I have another of my ladies to share, a rather quirky one this time, with the caption 'Talk to me'. There are 2 films with this title, once from 1984, a drama starring Austin Pendleton, and the other from 1996, starring Yasmine Bleeth and Ricky Goldin. And then I found another 2 films with this name as well as 2 TV series. The bird is another of the rarities from Balconia-by-the-Rhine, and is commonly known as the larger green-feathered chatterer, a notoriously talkative and gossip loving bird::
Some thinkies and funnies:

Have a great day, take care,
and thanks a lot for coming by!
Happy Midweek Wishes.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours in your art ...
Great selection of thinkies/funnies.
All the best Jan
All the best Jan
Thanks Jan, have a wonderful week!
DeleteShe is a fun lady Valerie. And she obviously has wonderful talents attracting animals to her, especially this unusual bird. I think she must be very kind. Funny there are so many films by the same name. I haven't heard of any of the Talk to Me films, but then I'm not very good with film names. Hope your nicer weather stays around. We have it here also. It's great. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteYes, I was surprised that there are so many films with that name, but I only relaly know the first one. Let's hope spring stays with us!
DeleteYou are so cleaver with your art and the films. Nice photos and love the funnies. Have a great day, Valerie.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole, hope you are feeling better!
DeleteI've never heard of any Talk to Me films, but I don't see many movies. However, your lady with her bird is beautiful and nicely done for Alison's theme at AJJ. Sorry I didn't see your request for me to link you to T Tuesday. Obviously, I was not home.
ReplyDeleteLove the funnies, especially the broken crayons. They might be describing me!
I don't watch any movies these days, I used to watch more. Yes, broken crayons do their work as well as the whole ones!
DeleteBeautiful art complete with balconia-by-the-Rhine bird. Enjoyed the photos and thinkies, that essay is great.
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine, I liked that essay, too!
DeleteGlad you're getting some spring weather again.
ReplyDeleteThanks, so am I!
DeleteYour ideal of love bird is sure different. But I like different.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Thanks Dora!
DeleteHi Val, good morning. Lovely art, and I had to laugh at the name of the bird - half of the people I know would fit that gossip loving and spreading definition! Hope you are having a good day, and that the sun will smile on you again. Hugs from us all, Sarah
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, have a great day!
DeleteNice art. I miss the chance to enjoy having a grandma. Beautiful mural. Cute puppy fallen asleep in his food bowl.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy. My grandparents died when I was small!

ReplyDeleteI am delighted with your work. Great photos and a wonderful mural. Happy Holidays :)
Thanks Lucyna! Happy Easter!
DeleteThe Larger Green-feathered Chatterer is a bird to behold, Valerie, and given its reputation for assaulting one's eardrums I am not entirely sorry that I am unable to hear it. I have heard it on very good authority that there was even an incidence of inter-species mating, not well documented in the literature though. It involved a male Chatterer and a female Double-breasted Bed Thrasher. Between thrashing and chattering, and whatever else went on between them, it was clear that it was not going to work, and they went back to their own kind. At least this is what I surmise. Your femme fatale, as do all of the ones you create, looks absolutely stunning. The last picture really made me laugh. I have actually seen similar scenes in Asia. I sure hope one of them doesn't fall off his scooter. Have a great day. i am off to lead a bird walk. It is dull and cool this morning after a sunny day with eighteen degrees yesterday. We will soldier on regardless! Hugs and kisses, David.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you recognise this rare species, and i can believe that mixed breeding here woud not be good! Glad you like your daily lady. Having internet problems today, trying to get in a few comments before it goes off again! Big hugs!
DeleteI am rolling with laughter about the eight year old's take on grandmothers. I've never seen that before and it's just hysterical. Maybe a little bit true and a lot bit not! It's enough they take us to the play horse. And the man-grandfather! Have to share that with Rick! I love that!
ReplyDeleteGlad it gave you a laugh, I thought it was hilarious, too. I couldn't stop laughing! Have a great day, hugs!
DeleteThis was such a fun post. To start with-I love your art piece. LOVE it.
ReplyDeleteAnd the funnies were hilarious. You have made my day.
Thanks Debra, you make my day, too, with your lovely comments!
DeleteI wonder what the bird is whispering to the goddess. Looks like Spring is in full bloom in your corner. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteI think he's telling her the news from the house next door!
Deletethis art is really lovely:)
ReplyDeleteTanks Kathy! Have a great day!
DeleteI love your lady with orange hair. Love the meme about leadership skills. Right on!
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed! Have a great day!
