Would you look at that #SulphurCrestedCockatoo looking like butter wouldn't melt...

Little buggers would flock to trees outside the #CulturalInstitution I used to #GLAMEducator at & squawk their heads off the SECOND I started my intro to the #SchoolTour for the kids!

EVERY SINGLE TIME! 🤬
Lorikeets and cockatoos poster by Betty Temple Watts, circa 1958 featuring a pink galah (love them!), a black cockatoo I've forgotten the name of, but they feature on cover of William Cooper's bird book, and a noisy bloody sulphur crested cockatoo in the bottom right corner pretending to be all demure and butter wouldn't melt innocent!!! Lisa is not fooled. Can be found on the National Library of Australia website: here is the link - https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-139526742/view

New head of the Kennedy Center tries to show that the building really needs a renovation
via PBS NewsHour - The Latest — Trump's move to shutter the building for two years starting in July, which was approved by the board last month, has spurred lawsuits and an outcry that the closure is merely a response to plunging sales as artists canceled Kennedy Center performances in droves.
