So, it has become apparent to me that my computer sucks.... Still fun trying - Special thanks to Anya Ohmai's youtube for the wonderful tips for photography... I hope I can eventually get nice shots worth looking at.
Two of my cockatiels, Punky on the left & Albin on the right hand side, photographed together in natural light & no flash on black background limbo. No cropping at all nor heavy post-processure.
They are mates and have almost the same age, Albin is just one week younger. She's a Lutin (Eno) while Punky is a brilliant pearlized.
They are good friends, Albin is more noisy, Punky is quieter & very affectioned. Now they are 2 months old & just begun to eat on their own! Buon Appetito!

a closeup of puff pastry pork sausage rolls freshly baked. they don't look great, my first attempt, but tasted ok. i've eaten six the rest have been boxed for the freezer
ready made puff pastry (£1.15) www.sainsburys.co.uk/gol-ui/product/sainsburys-sheet-puff... (first time i've used it and would definitely buy again)
400 grammes minced pork £5 (300 grammes would have been ok)
finely chopped onion
panko breadcrumbs (leftover from the sushi)
herbs
2 tablespoons of water
1 egg
salt & pepper
sesame seeds
mixed the minced pork with onion, breadcrumbs, herbs, water, salt and pepper
halved the mixed sausage meat
cut the length of pastry in half
laid half the mixed sausage meat along one half of the pastry
brushed the edges with whisked egg and sealed
did the same with the other half and sealed
cut into smaller sausage rolls
brushed the tops with whisked egg
put the sausage rolls on a tray covered with baking paper
placed in a preheated oven at 220 fah
the recipe said 30 to 35 mins but i left it in for more like 45/50 mins to make sure the meat was properly cooked
i burnt the base of the rolls as i had the tray of rolls too close to the lower elements of the mini countertop oven.
when i realised i moved the tray up a shelf and all was fine
the mini countertop oven for baking uses
only the bottom elements, not the top elements
a shelf at least up one from the bottom to prevent burning

ps i'm not recommending any of these cookery adventures. they suit my personal taste. photographing to encourage myself to eat more healthily ...
i've created a group www.flickr.com/groups/cooking_is_my_hobby/ to gather ideas and encourage myself to continue with healthy eating by learning from others if you're interested in cooking, sometimes or a lot, or enjoy the cooking of others, you're always welcome ...
