I'm so upset...I started to vac around Penny's cage & she started to take a bath.
I got my camera & thought I pressed the video & was getting a great shot of her when I sadly realized too late that it wasn't recording!!!!

Anyway it seems Penny will take a bath with the vacuum. She dunks her head it & does a handstand dunking as much of her as she can...So...

:omg::faint::heart::heart::heart: accompanied by shouts of joy!!!:blahblah:

Shes all wet & I got a few seconds of that...

OMG, how adorable! She sounds like a little squeak toy! Sounds like she was saying, 'Up!' towards the end.

Try editing it down with a better codec to get a quality but much smaller file to upload. I use a video editing program with my HDTV captures and it will convert and edit the raw captures to any other format I want. I've been using H264 mkv format and they get quite a but smaller without loosing quality. H265 is even better but my editing program doesn't support it though I could probably find something free that could do it once I have everything edited down and in a common format like the one I use now.

Have to figure it out...Now I'm just glad to be able to view them as the other camera took them in files I could not open.

The files are not big...much less than some photos. I have to see if I can get some freebie editing software that is safe..

Penny does do that small soft sort of chihuahua toy bark most of the time. Shes very quiet but were still in the honeymoon period. Most of her sounds are wonderful but she does have one loud :blahblah:
She does not use it that much & I hope it stays that way. Mostly beeps/ smoke alarm sounds, that soft chirp, a grey sort of whistle & a few melodic whistle tunes & one louder jungle tune thats really nice. Thought I heard up a few times already she knows that. Did some sort of low dark whisper talk the other day sound like "something in the mirror" sort of was scary...:omg:

Most of all I love the laugh!!!:heart:

Like mother, like daughter:)

Actually its like Grandmother like daughter...I like ice but I can also live without it.

My Mom can't drink anything without ice...even to swallow her pills!

Penny likes my homemade buttermilk stone ground corn muffins...We've had them for breakfast...no sugar no oil just eggs & some honey.

I got to get more carrots!!!

I figured out a way to use Paint 3D to edit my old sig & add Penny...Its primitive but it works!

She's still amazing...Such a joy to have in my life!!!

Now that's a unhappy bird...

Don't bother with that one, loaded with ads and tries to vet you to buy other things to do what it claims to do. The one I use is Video Redo and I liked it enough for what I need to do with my video captures that I paid for it and have paid with a loyalty discount for the latest version a few years ago. I'd Google for good free video editing software then read reviews and pick one or two and see what you like best.
You might already have something built into your OS that works but if you get real serious sometimes a good non overpriced specialty program is really worth paying for.

Also if your internet connection is really slow of course it takes forever to upload a small video, plus most plans are much slower at uploads than downloads.
