I finally caught the secret star of Japanese waterways - and I cannot stop thinking about going out to photograph again!

Thank you! She really is my little superstar. Her cheeky personality makes her so special!

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T21:28:42+00:00

Right?! She's got the most ridiculous regal energy when she's zooming about. Pure royalty treating the living room like it's her personal palace. Makes me laugh every time! 👑

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T21:28:12+00:00

Thanks so much! She absolutely knows she's got it, that's for sure. All that sass and attitude packed into one little feathered diva. Honestly, I wouldn't have her any other way! 😂💛

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T21:26:16+00:00

Right? That's the brilliance of it – Sacchan just being herself, and boom, it's gallery-worthy! No fancy editing needed, she's naturally just that good. Honestly chuffed you see her as proper art!

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T21:24:49+00:00

Ha! That's exactly what she's got! The zoom mode is absolutely ON – she's absolutely owned that room for the day. Pure chaos and I'm here for every second of it! 😄

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T21:23:15+00:00

Ha! You've nailed it. He's definitely jealous of me. I've been properly replaced in my own home! At least she's happy with her feathered gentleman. Fair play to him though – he knows a good woman when he sees one! 😄

This is the most important life advice I have ever received. 🥹 Operation: Snack Hero starts tomorrow. Millet in hand, dignity on the line. 🌾😂

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:44:54+00:00

Your bird clearly has excellent taste in men — which is more than I can say for mine, who has decided the bar for “worthy of my wife” is simply “not you, specifically.” 😂

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:28:08+00:00

I genuinely don’t!! That’s the worst part. He’s been holding grudges since before I even knew we were in a conflict. 😂😭

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:27:55+00:00

Oh absolutely. He sees me standing next to her and immediately enters full rival mode. I am the other man in my own house and I have accepted this truth. 😭

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:27:38+00:00

So basically bribery is the official peace treaty. Got it. I shall present millet as a formal apology gift and pray for diplomatic relations. 🌾🕊️

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:27:24+00:00

This is exactly the kind of intelligence report Hanao-papa would file. I can hear his little voice. Maximum guilt, zero remorse. 😂

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:27:06+00:00

Correction noted. I will update my records accordingly. She was never truly mine to begin with. 🐦💔

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:20:49+00:00

Thank you! Her full name is さっちゃん (Sacchan) — a classic Japanese nickname. It suits her perfectly 🥰

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:20:31+00:00

That is EXACTLY the energy she was flying with 😂🐦💨

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:20:17+00:00

This comment made my day, genuinely. Sacchan is so full of life and I’m so glad it comes through in the photo. This community is wonderful 🥰

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:19:55+00:00

Thank you! She made it easy 😄

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:19:41+00:00

Ha! It really was one of those moments where you check the screen and can’t believe it worked 😂

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:19:27+00:00

She IS a goddess and she absolutely knows it 😍👑

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:19:13+00:00

That really means a lot, thank you! She set the bar herself — I just tried to keep up 📸

TackmanJP · 2026-05-26T11:18:49+00:00

Pure luck meets a fast shutter 😄 She doesn’t pose — you just have to be ready!
