Quaker Parrot Proudly Showing Off Her New 'Floof' Is Too Cute to Handle
Quaker Parrot Proudly Showing Off Her New 'Floof' Is Too Cute to Handle originally appeared on PetHelpful. As a pet parent, nothing feels more gratifying than watching a furry, feathered, or scaly friend living their best life. Whether they're relaxing on the couch with Dad, napping in the sunshine, or enjoying a nutritious meal, there are so many ways to help rescue pets feel their very best. When you have a happy pet on your hands, you can pat yourself on the back for a job well done! The bird rescuers behind @the_green_bird_brigade work hard to give their pet parrots everything they need to thrive, but moments like Auggie's June 5 milestone make it all worthwhile. Auggie is a beautiful blue Quaker Parrot who has been living with a hormonal condition that results in feather loss and plucking. However, now that she's on an effective new medication, she has the cutest new 'floof'. Just wait until you see her! What a beautiful bird! Auggie seems so chatty and happy with herself as she sings and dances for Mom, and no one can blame her one bit. Regrowing feathers is a big deal, and she deserves every millisecond of her celebration. "Auggie is looking super fluffy. Do I spy pantaloons?" one commenter asked. 'Pantaloons' is the cute nickname for the fluffy, small feathers that grow on some birds' legs, and if you look closely, you can see that Auggie is growing some of her own. After losing most of the feathers on her front to a hormonal condition, this is a major improvement!Of course, this talking parrot charms people with her songs just as much as her fluff. This one is called "Bacon Pancakes," and it's one of her all-time favorites. If you listen closely, you can hear exactly why they named her song after breakfast food. It really sounds like she's saying 'bacon pancakes!' Quaker Parrots like Auggie can be green or blue, but they all have a flat, downturned beak and small black eyes. They may not all be as resilient and loving as Auggie is, but they make wonderful pets for loving, dedicated pet parents. Looking for more PetHelpful updates?

Divisive horror movie full of 'grotesque monsters' now streaming on BBC iPlayer
If you fancy making your weekend a gruesome one, look no further than a 'grotesque' horror movie from 2019 that's been added to BBC iPlayer. Directed by Andre Ovredal and co-written by Guillermo Del Toro, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark was released in 2019 and became a box office success. Made on a budget of $25million (£18.5m), it performed better than expectations on its opening weekend six years ago and made back $104.5m (£77m) in total. Starring Zoe Colletti and Michael Garza, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is based on the book series of the same name, written by Alvin Schwartz, who died in 1992. The film follows the story of Stella, Auggie, and Chuck, who visit a haunted house and find a book of horror stories written by a long-deceased author named Sarah Bellows. Bellows' stories soon come to life, and the scary monsters and creatures they contain emerge in the real world, putting Stella, Auggie, and Chuck in more danger than they realise. In 2019, critics watching the film in its early weeks after release were broadly positive, with its current Rotten Tomatoes rating sitting at 78%. Fans received Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark positively as well, with 72% of Rotten Tomatoes users saying they would give the film a score of 7.0 out of 10 or more. On X, user @Muesquehere said that the introduction in the film of the creature known as The Pale Lady was among the most disturbing scenes of any horror film. @English_Shamar said: 'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is a really good movie to watch' when another user asked for the scariest horrors their followers had seen before. On Letterboxd, film critic Matt Singer said the movie was proof that 'it is possible to make a genuinely scary PG-13-rated horror movie'. User Tom Bowen also commented: 'The period setting is cool, all the kids are great performers, and I was surprised by just how creepy it was with some eerie designs and disturbing sequences.' Joining the cast of the 2019 film were Breaking Bad star Dean Norris, who played Hank Schrader, and Orange is the New Black actress Lorraine Toussaint, who played Yvonne in the Netflix series. The books upon which the film is based were released in 1981, 1984, and 1991 and were published shortly before author Schwartz's death at the age of just 64. More Trending In 1981, the first book was titled Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, while later editions were titled More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark and Scary Stories 3: More Tales to Chill Your Bones. Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark was famously illustrated by artist Stephen Gammell, whose drawings of 'grotesque monsters' became iconic among horror fans. As of 2017, the stories had sold a collective total of seven million copies and have appeared on numerous bestseller lists for children's and young adults' fiction.

Andrew Garfield and Monica Barbaro enjoy a romantic walk on the beach in Malibu
Andrew Garfield and Monica Barbaro have taken their romance to the next level as they stepped out looking relaxed and casual for the beach, just months after their affair began. The couple who have sparked romance speculation since being spotted in London in February this year spent part of their Memorial Day weekend watching the waves crash into the shore on Monday. Barbaro, 34, wore a navy blue sweatshirt over a pair of straight leg jeans. Her long, brown locks were brushed straight and she appeared to be wearing little makeup behind her dark sunglasses. The Oscar nominee carried her small white dog as they strolled along the rocky shore. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. It appeared Auggie may have recently gone through some sort of veterinary procedure as it wore a cone around its neck. Garfield, 41, kept it casual in a pair of green joggers and a gray and black parody T-shirt which featured a skeleton swinging a baseball bat with Los Angeles Dosers written on it. The actor, who sported a full beard and wore dark sunglasses was spotted taking a turn holding Auggie as well. Garfield and Barbaro were first photographed together at W Magazine's Best Performances party in Los Angeles in January. They were spotted together a second time after attending Bridgerton star Jonathan Bailey's performance in Richard III in London in February. Barbaro will be treading the boards herself soon. She has been signed to make her stage debut at London's National Theater in a revival of Pierre Choderlos de Laclos' Les Liaisons Dangereuses. She will co-star alongside BAFTA and Olivier Award winner Lesley Manville, and Poldark star Aiden Turner. 'Could not be more excited about this❤️,' the A Complete Unknown star wrote on social media when the announcement was made. Garfield recently completed work on After the Hunt with Julia Roberts and Chloë Sevigny. The thriller focuses on a college professor who must decide what to do when a star student levies an accusation against one of the professor's colleagues. The crime drama will be released in theaters in October.

Eryna Qaleesya's top pick: Wonder by RJ Palacio
Do you have something to share? Send us your letters using this form Wonder is a book about Auggie Pullman, a 10-year-old boy born with a facial deformity, struggling to navigate public school in the US. Although his family loves him for who he is, he gets bullied by his classmates. My favourite character in the book is Summer Dawson. Let me tell you why. During lunch, Auggie sat alone. Summer's friends saw Auggie and teased him. Summer didn't like that, so she went to Auggie's table and became friends with him. I loved that she always stood up for Auggie whenever he was bullied. Another thing I admire about Summer is her fearlessness, about how she's not afraid of being friends with someone who has a special condition. She was really brave for doing that. If I were Summer, I would do the same as she did. To not judge Auggie for who he is and treat him respectfully. It teaches me to do the same in real life as well. I would accept him for who he is because everyone is unique in their own way. After reading this book, it made me reflect on how we should treat others. It made me realise that accepting differences is important in maintaining relationships. In conclusion, Wonder is a fantastic book for those who would like to learn about the power of kindness, empathy and love.
