Introductions

[wmgorum]

Hey everyone,

Will here... I'm in the Little Rock, Arkansas area and I'm new to TerraForums. I've been growing carnivorous plants for about 10 years, though my collection is pretty small right now. I'm currently growing a couple of Nepenthes hybrids, a couple of species of Drosera, a few Sarracenia, and a so far less-than-successful first attempt with Pinguicula caerulea.

I'm a sign language interpreter, I share my abode with a Yellow Naped Amazon parrot, a 135 gallon discus aquarium, and my carnivorous plants.

I'm looking forward to seeing what I can learn from everyone here.

Later,
Will

Of course! It's amazing what he can do with his wings and zygodactyl feet. I wish my toes were that dexterous. ;-)

The parrot knowing sign language comment was meant completely and utterly facetiously... just to clarify. He is starting to talk fairly well though. He's still a baby, not yet a year old.

I've got some pics of him on my computer at home, but I'm in the office right now, so they'll have to wait...

Later,
Will
