Smokey continues to visit for the major part of a day. Whenever I leave my study to check the mailbox, do some laundry, cook dinner, etc, he is generally waiting for me on the windowsill. He has a habit of landing on the fly screen of the kitchen window and trying to cling on, if he observes me washing up at the sink. If he spots me enter my bedroom, he will fly onto the windowsill and run up and down or beak-tap to attract my attention. I managed to take a few photographs demonstrative of his devotions.
This is when he turned his head away, as if camera shy. Moments before the click, he was beak tapping the window in order to try to peck my nose.
Here he is, following my finger taps with beak taps.
Here is Smokey again, somewhat bedraggled courtesy of the rain.
Finally, a close up of what was a beak-nose 'kiss' - or would have been two seconds before the camera caught it!
