Cute as a button!

Stella usually appears during my rounds when I am feeding in the large net pond at the aviary where I work. Generally she gets in a bucket in the bed of the pick-up truck, looking for peanuts (which she is feasting on in the white bucket). I give her peanuts and treats on the tailgate and she eats while I finish my chores. I had set this bucket outside the gate while I was feeding the birds greens and grapes and when I turned around there she was, dining in style! I slipped my camera out of my pocket and snapped away, inches from her. She is so tame I can pet her. Seeing her makes my day.
