1920-ish genuine Mikado straw that landed in Roswell, New Mexico. Details are sketchy...

birds, plural?
How many birds do you have?
What kind?

I have a crimson belly conure and a turquoise green cheek (archive shot after a morning walk in the travel pack):

With two adults, two birds and two rabbits, the house is fairly cramped -- but we'll have to make room for one more soon!

So darn pretty.
Thanks Bob. You've been rolling out some awfully nice hats lately, save one anyway.

iNice Jack. I like that edge treatment. What hat is that?

That is one hell of a nice hat, Michael! Impressive, to say the least. When we went to the beach at Playas, Ecuador, with family the temp was right at 79F and 100% humidity! Crazy, right? I didn't think that was possible unless it was pouring down rain. My cheap market hat popped a vertical crease just off center of the front crown! I just poured filtered water over it and ironed it back into place a couple days ago... with a clean white handkerchief between the iron and the straw; low silk heat setting.... slow but sure.

Keep cool and hydrated, friend!
Thanks Doug. That kind of humidity gets old pretty quickly, with me at least. It's 91 feels like 102 here now. I've decided staying in the house sounds good so it's a Dr Who marathon this afternoon.
Did the crease iron out well? I've not done much work on any kind of straws.

Thanks all,
Michael
