Yep, it's the time of year that parrots go on a bit of a bender by eating stacks of fermented fruit. If you're so inclined you can read more about it here.
What that article doesn't tell you though is that every year all the parrots put "Soooo hungover. But maaaan it was worth it! Good times!" as their Facebook status the next day.
So get squawking and get Flogging!

Partying like Britney. I like it. Should probably fish the fermenting fruit out of the back of my fridge and give it a go. *ahem*. Guess what I was doing before 7am? Not only waiting on FYBF, but...wait for it....CLEANING. WTF?! Full permission to slap me around next time we do cawfee and macaroons *double ahem*
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Like Schoolies for parrots!
ReplyDeleteFor a squawking good time, dial Polly wants a cracker!
ReplyDeletebahahahahahaha!! theres a lot of pissed parrots around our place!! lol love the facebook status!! :P
ReplyDeleteReminds me of my ex-work colleagues during the silly season...oh, and (the upcoming) Melbourne Cup. They say that's the day that the nation stops. I beg to differ. I think it's the following day when everyone is nursing a sore head...and calls in "sick".
ReplyDeleteHopping in for the first time. Love FlogYoBlog <3
ReplyDeleteYou are the hostest with the mostest xx
ReplyDeleteAnd here, being the American that I am, I was expecting an angry parrot.
ReplyDeleteThe alternative is so much better. I just forgot that in Australia pissed meant drunk, and that I was reading a blog by an Australian. Then I saw the picture. I was like OH, DUH!
Regional dialects. Gotta love 'em.
I thought at first that the parrot was a representation of you (or people you know)... Sorry, you really meant parrots.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good time!
ReplyDeleteah yes the bl**dy parrots and cockies in my stinky mango tree in the back yard
ReplyDeleteDo you live in the top end - I thought you were in Perth?
Beakbook staus. I'm a geek.
ReplyDeleteI'm in Perth but I'd love to go see the pissed parrots :P
ReplyDeleteBahaha yes
ReplyDeleteIt's quite possibly a representation of me last weekend at a party...
ReplyDeleteDidn't even think of that! They might be angry if you take their fruit away from them though
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Thanks for joining in
ReplyDeleteMan I don't even know you any more.
