Very nice straight on photo of Leoti.
Stephanie recently noticed Leoti doesn't have the terminal black bar on her tail. Stephanie's looking into how common this is, causes, etc.

From Anne Marie:

Leoti's food-focus is very interesting. When I've been in the dorms cleaning other cages, I've seen her throw herself at the bottom of the door - in the hopes that I have something for her to eat. As it happens, I volunteer on a fast day, so I've only had something for her on one occassion. I stood in her cage with her while she ate, in the hopes that it might help her build trust.
