Emmy and Felix finally moved into the big cage. Felix pals around with Gordie, but is a little standoffish with the others. I think Emmy wanted to be alpha female, but Lera shut that down pretty quickly. Both are doing well and seem to enjoy being with the flock. And I enjoy having only one cage to clean : ).
Felix and friends.
Felix and Lera – pastel parakeets.
Emmy and her beau, Ozzie.
Hanging out with Cooper.
Why chew on a perfectly good chew toy –
when you can chew on a perch?
Or a book?
The bookcase is Sunny’s second home.
Try as I might, I can’t keep her off of it. 
Sunny and the Sea Monster.
Remember that brand new ladder from three days ago?
What? No bloopers? Cooper has become such a super little model that we didn’t have any bloopers this month. So instead, here are some pics of the flock opening wide and saying, “Ahhh.” Or, “ACK!”

Sunny is three(ish)!
One of her presents was a star gazer.
The other was marshmallows (her favorite). I put up the divider so she could have them all to herself. 
And, of course, all the budgies feasted on millet.
Happy birthday Sunnybunny!
It’s difficult to get a good flight photo!
Here’s Ozzie:
Alfie:
And Sunny:
The budgies have a new play gym.
This is how it came. 
We changed it up a bit by adding a grapevine perch and some new toys.
Sunny went right into destructo mode.
Lera sitting pretty by the bell.
Cooper hanging out on the swing. The boys enjoyed the gym, too. But they were so active all their photos were blurry. Busy, busy budgies!
We moved Gordie’s cage into the budgies’ room.
Sunny flew over to check out the new guy.
Cooper was next.
Gordie was pretty calm about all these budgies giving him the once over.
The boys (Alfie and Ozzie) finally came over to see what the fuss was about.
Once we’re sure there won’t be any fighting, Gordie will move into the big cage. Hurray!
These three have been conspiring in the corner lately.
I wonder what they’re up to…?
One year ago today, we brought home a little ray of sunshine…
Happy anniversary Sunny – we love you!
