asterroc: (Astro - 2MASS)
In local coordinates, besides 0º altitude being the (ideal) horizon, we have two other key points - the zenith at an altitute of +90º, and the nadir at -90º. These are both originally English words, though they're used less often lately. Zenith means "peak, height, best", for example "The pop star was at the zenith of her career." And nadir means "lowest, worst," as in "Brittaney Spears is at the nadir of her career."

The shower perch was the best investment I've made for Gabe yet. First time I used it I had it on the back wall of the shower, away from the spray. He settled right down and started preening, and every time I moved he made those croony-squeals that meant I was too close to where HE had staked out. This time I put it on the side wall, and he immediately leaned forward ALL the way down with his wings spread out really really wide, ruffling feathers, tail straight up, letting the water get between his feathers and down to his skin. *grin* Gabe knows how to shower! I didn't want to get the camera wet, so the only photos I grabbed were after the fact. He's all wet and comfy and happy, it's awesome. ^_^
