Budgies and Brunch
The Garden Cafe in Yuma, Arizona.
I came across this restaurant online. They have bird aviaries – with budgies (which are not on the menu)!
Here is their website – due to the pandemic, check to see if they’re open.
We will definitely have to stop by the next time we’re in Arizona!
Another New Toy – July
When the toy you ordered finally arrives!
It’s the California Roll. This is the MEDIUM. Yeesh. I think they added another size because this thing is huge. Next time I’ll get the small.
This is Sido’s favortite toy. She loves to pull out the palm thingies. Hopefully this will keep her busy for awhile.
A Budgie to Love
Comedian and songwriter Hannah Brackenbury performs a cute little song (a parody of “Somebody to Love” by Queen) about her rescue budgie, Bertie. Bertie landed in Hannah’s yard one day – she wasn’t able to find his owner, so she became his human. 27Now that’s something to sing about!
