After all the holiday celebrations, the birds need a nap.
I’m ready to join them. How about you?

The Christmas Haul
The budgies received some wonderful gifts from their friends.
From Kelle and John, some Christmassy shreddables. Here’s Sido having fun.
And here’s Ozzie representing the budgies.
They also gave the budgies a huge bag of millet. Felix and the budgies say, “Thanks Kelle and John!”
From Adam and Drazen – a gift card from PetSmart. We used it to buy the budgies’ favorite toy – marshmallows! We usually split them up so the girls each get “their own”. Thanks Adam and Drazen!
*Emmy still doesn’t like the camera.

From their Uncle Polt, the birds got a cuttlebone and delicious treat sticks. Here is Cooper nomming away. Thank you Uncle Polt!
Merry Christmas!
Christmas Eve
May your holiday be filled with noise, feasting and singing!
Cooper’s Day Off
Moulting. Again.
Cooper’s Cuties
Meet Holly!
Holly lives in Minnesota with Karon and Ernie (Cooper’s Cutie, August 2014).
Holly was adopted after Ernie lost his buddy, Bert, to a sudden illness. Holly had also lost her cage mate, and her former owner no longer wanted to keep her.
Holly is a sweet, fearless, smart and very curious girl who adored Ernie from the minute she met him.
She loves her mash, especially apples. And she loves exploring all over even in spots that are supposed to be off limits.
She and Ernie love their afternoon naps on the shadow box and playing with all kinds of toys.
Ernie was so sad before we found Holly but now he sings and chatters all the time. They are so cute together and we are so lucky to have our sweet baby girl for her first Christmas.

Cooper’s Book Report
This month’s book is Candy Cane the Christmas Cockatiel by Theresa Weber Corasis.
Candy Cane is a cockatiel whose life-long dream is to go to the North Pole and become one of Santa’s helpers. One day Candy Cane decides to make his dream a reality. He puts on his scarf and off he goes. On the way he meets a gingerbread couple, deer, a guardian angel, Sam and Samantha Snowman and Santa’s Elves. But will Candy Cane get to not only help Santa, but meet him as well?
Cooper enjoyed the tale of this brave little cockatiel. She had fun reading about all his adventures and the interesting Christmas characters he met. Cooper loves when a bird’s dreams come true (though she would have preferred that the book starred a budgie, of course). She liked looking at all the photos of Candy, taken by the author, and would recommend this book to any Christmas loving budgie. Or cockatiel.
Happy Hanukkah!
