Cooper’s Bloopers
We don’t always get the budgies’ photos right on the first shot*. Here are some pics that didn’t make the cut.
The first blooper is all me. Did anyone notice that Cooper’s song of the month this December was the same song of the month last December? No? Well, it was. Oops. For an all new song of the month for December, click here.Sunny and Cooper demonstrate how much budgies love to share.Cooper thought it was great fun to knock the little budgie off the glass rim. We played the pickitupknockitoff game for a long time before we finally got our photo.* Due to the photographer and through no fault of the models, of course.

Holiday Cheer
The budgies made quite a haul this holiday season!
We bought the budgies some new footie toys. Although they’re kind of big for footie toys…From their Uncle Polt, seed treats (I just set them on the bottom of the cage, for mult-budgie access), and this great rope toy (Ozzie’s favorite).From the budgies’ Uncle Adam, a gift card (which will buy some great toys and millet)!And Adam sent me this amazing picture of all our beautiful budgies. I love it so much!From Uncle David – more treats!Say, how do you open these anyway?From Erin, Duckie and Sailor – these adorable budgie socks. Parakeet perfection!And for the budgies, vine balls stuffed with crinkle paper. The budgies went NUTS over them.From Susan and her flock, this beautiful wine glass with budgie charm (which filled in as Cooper’s Christmas tree topper) and a budgie to-do list to keep me on my toes.The budgies (and I) are so lucky to have such wonderful, thoughtful friends. You all made our Christmas cheerful and bright. We hope you all had as happy a holiday season as we did. Love to all the Cooper’s Corner readers!
XOX, the flock
