| Norbert is fabulous! And I think his fierce face is sweet! Sounds like he's got a little chameleon in him the way he's changing colors!

More begging for food! | | |

I am truly hurt and offended by such accusations!
<flashlight - check, betta moving tank - check>
I daresay I've never been so falsely maligned!
<straightening "Welcome home, Norbert!" sign on wall>
I think I'll go out for a loooooong drive to cool off!

Pam, I don't know how I missed the rest of this thread. What a little bugger.
I love his color and his face is so cute. | |

| Can I come and visit? I promise not to steal him!!!
What about the kid behind me? I've never seen him before in my life... What do you mean he said I paid him $20 to sneak in while you were busy talking to me, and steal the fish? Well, I said I've never seen him before, who are you going to believe, me or him? Don't I look innocent? No?
Alright kid, give me back my $20! | |

| Karen,
Oh gee, Minx, MousePotato and probably jdhef are closing in on us. HIDE, Norbert and Patron! 
You know their dastardly plots to get Norbert are more or less an excuse to make a fairly easy way to get Patron while they're in "the neighborhood." I'm getting really suspicious of emilai333, too. And don't be surprised if you see some of Will's filter media missing, too! | |

| Okay, here's the latest picture of Norbert the Dragon. I still can't capture his shimmering beauty in a picture. But you can see how he shows off his dragon scales for the camera, as well as his Dalmatian markings!

On a completely unrelated note, I'm working on my Christmas card list, so if you could just pm me your full address and your daily schedule... | |

Thanks for the nice comments on the pics, all. I still don't have one I'm 100% satisfied with. Will keep trying. | |

My best photos so far only capture about 75% of his beauty. And I can't blame that on his being camera shy. He's got a great personality, too!
Karen is such an excellent photographer and all her boys are so gorgeous in the photos. She probably captures about 90 to 95% of their beauty -- quite an amazing accomplishment as I've found out. As many of you know, I met them. It seems almost impossible they could be even more gorgeous in person, but they are!
Her Dunn is the one, IMHO, that showed the biggest difference between the photos and in person. My Norbert is similar to Dunn in many ways. Maybe I'll get up to 80% before Karen gets here, and she can get 90%.  | |

| Oh, and I forgot to post that he was not my find. I think Devon found him and posted a link.
Norbert is really really busy. He's making a bubble-nest! I'll bet it has 500 bubbles since yesterday! He's not shy in flirting with me, either. He shows me that he goes up, grabs some air, submerses about an inch or two, then blows one to three bubbles out! What a lot of work!
I have a funny feeling that he's like Karen's Patron. Although they look very different, he knows how gorgeous he is! And the common thing is that Patron and Norbert both think Karen and I are female bettas. They are flirting with us!
