Alfie has been spritzed with the spray bottle, but he took his first official bath the other day.
Not so sure about this…
His buddy Ozzie shows him what to do.
He took to it like a duck to water. Maybe they should change that to a “budgie to water”.
Squeaky clean!
The tap dancing lovebird..
and here’s more!
Last night Harry and I attended the Free Flight Tropical Sunset Fundraiser. Free Flight is an exotic bird sanctuary in Del Mar. You can read more about them on the Free Flight website. We had a lot fun – they had a bar, delicious food, a silent auction and a great band.
A Blue and Gold Macaw greeted the guests.
Harry with a Hyacinth Macaw. She was very sweet. I got to feed her some grapes, a carrot and some banana.
Here I am with an Eclectus parrot (males are green and females are red).
Here is Harry with a cockatoo on a visit we made a week ago.
This parrot let me scritch its pin feathers – much bigger than a budgie’s!
Here’s a little video of some of the birds: a Moluccan Cockatoo, a pair of Mexican Red- headed Amazons and a Gold and Yellow Macaw.
My friend Tam shared this today. It was so cute, I had to post it. Thanks Tam!
Alfie gets very excited when he sees his yellow clip. It means he’ll be getting a treat. Maybe even lettuce or millet!
He didn’t have to wait long. Yum!
Cooper was fascinated by her reflection in the printer. She was chasing herself in circles – but I was too late with the camera to catch it.
Sunny and Dewey get their groom on (Sunny gets her turn at the end).
A treat that some budgies enjoy.
Unless you’re a birdie who likes to destroy.
*C is also for confetti.
The novelty of the paper towel roll has not worn off.
Going,
going,
gone!
Sunny thinks she owns the paper towels and chases the other budgies away. I put her in the cage so that Cooper could have a turn.
She went nuts watching Cooper playing with HER towels, so I had to let her out.
