Our friends at @squawk_squawd rescued five colorful birds who needed a home. They are warming up to life in Michigan. We will share stories tomorrow of all the birds getting acquainted with the kitchen. They all seem to be taken by this bottle of 2015 Jordan Cabernet, especially the blue-headed Pionus, Mochi. Pionus parrots are native to Mexico, and Central and South America. #birds #birdsofinstagram #parrotsofinstagram #parrot #pionusparrot #wine #winelover #cabernetsauvignon #instawine #instapet #winestagram #mondaymotivation #mondaynight
