I bring new pictures, only not of Frankie because the last few (rather sunny) days he has been sitting in such a well covered spot, that I can only see a bit of his side and tail feathers.
Well, only if I get on all fours and am almost lying on the concrete, so that ’s not gonna be a picture you’d want to see.

But I did get to hang out a bit with Carlos, his dad. For the past week Carlos had been awfully quick to fly away whenever I would show up, but today he allowed me to get so close I could almost touch him. He’s surprised with it himself, see?
All pictures have a larger view when you click ‘em.

And this is from Tuesday, Carlos taking off when my presence suddenly reminded him of some errands he needed to run:
