Cooper’s Cuties
Meet Dexter Budgerigar Bennett!
Dexter lives in Dublin, Ireland with Caroline.
He loves his little plastic budgie toys and throwing them around. And he loves playing with his buddy Whisper.
Dexter loves millet, in moderation, and spinach. He loves to chat, and has about 30 words.
You can see more photos (and videos) of Dexter (and Whisper) on his facebook page, here.
Budgie Buys
It’s a blue budgie keychain (from Khelekmir on Etsy). You can never have enough budgie keychains.
Don’t worry Cooper, it’s not as cute as the real thing.
Cooper’s Book Report
This month’s book is The Blue Parakeet, by Margaret Gould.
The Blue Parakeet is short and sweet. And like the previous sentence, it is told in rhyme. Jingle lives with a family who loves him on Happy Times Street. Yet he wishes he could join the birds who fly outdoors. One day the window is left open and Jingle flies away. Jingle loves soaring with his new friends Picky and Pecky, but does not want to eat bugs and eventually grows tired of roaming. At the end of the day he returns home to his people, who are waiting for him at the door with his favorite treat.
This was a very cute, little (9 pages) book. Cooper loved the colorful illustrations (by Lorraine L. Arthur). She was glad that Jingle found his way home and did not have to eat bugs. Gross.

Bird Note: Another pet story concerns the parakeet – lavender colored, of course – Kim Novak bought in New York while she was here filming Bell, Book and Candle. For weeks Kim tried to teach the parakeet to talk, in vain. After each of these sessions, the only sound heard was Kim Novak’s sigh of resignation, “I give up…” Miss Novak now has the parakeet in her Hollywood home, where visitors can hear the bird speak only one line, “I give up.” – St. Petersburg Times
Painting by Kim Novak – who is also an amazing artist. You can see her paintings here.
