Yes, she is, Gazania. That was from several years ago, I think it might have been her first egg. We had her for 6 years before she laid an egg. Susan, I love that photo, a true prize. Of course, I love German Shephards, they are magnificent creatures. My favorite dog was Duchess, and she was my constant companion.

They pull out their own feathers to make a nest. I was told that the feathers grow back within 14 weeks.

As angels go, she is pretty pathetic, but this is the one that has topped our tree for 56 years. She and the stars around her were attached to the bow on my very first Christmas present from the man I would marry in 6 months. The large yellow star is one of many ultra light tree decorations that daughters made in 1981 with 'Shrinky Dinks' for a Norfolk Island Pine that was our tree for several years.

That's a female you can see some of the red seeds that come from the inside and fall to the ground and make baby sago palms. Extremely poisonous plant by the way will kill a dog with in minutes if they chew on it. I have a huge one I really want to get rid of to close to the driveway.
