I like to share memories of our “rainbow” budgies on what would have been their hatchdays.
Today would have been Sunny’s hatchday.
Sunny was a rehomed budgie – we found her on Craigslist.
She had a sweet, gentle, playful nature. But she also had a “naughty” side. She liked to tip over her food dish, nibble on books or investigate off limit areas. She was a good little girlfriend to Dewey and companion to our girls.
She was a water baby, and absolutely loved baths and spritzes. After bath time, she would be drenched.
A favorite game was to drop toys off the top of the cage for me to catch. She was often beak deep in balsa, and when she could no longer fly (due to arthritis) Sunny enjoyed her playtime on the floor with her footies. When she was ready to go back to her cage, she would hop on our feet to let us know.

We are so lucky we had sweet little Sunny in our lives, and for all the wonderful memories we have of our time with her.
