Squawk, squawk! Remind me of my own kids when they were small! Well caught, though.

Looks and sounds like a typical teenager. Able but not willing to fend for itself. Crisp and sharp.

A beautifully detailed catch, Roy. That mouth interior is amazing!

Wow, you can even see the detail inside the mouth! ;) Great job, Roy.
