One year ago today, we brought home a little ray of sunshine…
Happy anniversary Sunny – we love you!

Oops
Michelle is gone for the weekend and I was left in charge. I forgot what I needed to do for a post and took a picture of Cooper and Sunny.
After talking to Michelle, I remembered (after being told) that I was supposed to take a photo of the new bird. Yay!
I didn’t like how that turned out, so I took the top off the cage and… spooked her with my camera. Eeks! She flew away and crawled under the couch. After much coaxing, I managed to get her here.
Welcome to the flock, Nuni! (That’s not her name, I just like to call her that).
Movin’ On Up
A while ago something arrived in the mail.
(insert “What’s in the box?” joke here)
It was a brand new cage for the budgies! Harry put it together.
Cooper “coopervised”.
Here’s Cooper deciding if Harry’s work is acceptable.
Once she deemed the cage suitable, the budgies moved in.
Alfie is never far from a bell.
Cooper was not too excited about having her picture taken – she is moulting and doesn’t feel she looks her best. 
Sunny was too busy taking apart the marshmallow toy to pose.
Emmy sitting pretty. The cage has a divider, which is up at present. Until Emmy is finger tamed we have her separated from the others. Ozzie spends his time going back and forth between sides.
Which is easy to do when you have your own airplane!
Tweethearts!
We have a love match! Ozzie has really taken to Emmy. Lots of nuzzling and kisses going on with these two. I’m so happy that Ozzie has finally found a little girlfriend. Now we just have to get Ozzie to tell Emmy to relax and step up so we can have her join the rest of the flock.
Here are Ozzers and Emmers in action:
Gordie!
Did you know that January is “Adopt a Bird Month”?
Meet Gordie – our newest addition! We found Gordie (we named him after Gordie Howe – Mr. Hockey) on Craigslist. Here he is in his quarantine cage.
Gordie is approximately 5 years old and has had at least two former owners. His previous owner did a great job taming him after acquiring him from some neglectful owners. He loves to sit on shoulders, but is wary of stepping up. We’ll try to work on that.
Harry is going to be a favorite perch. It’s good to be tall! This little budgie is a sweetie, and I can’t wait for him to meet the rest of the flock.
*The fact that he is blue is a just a coincidence! Gordie was the first budgie we saw on the animal shelter sites/Craigslist.

Meet Kacey!
Kacey lives in England with Laura.
Kacey is 5 months old – she was born 25/7/13.
She loves to play with her little plastic budgie and treats it like a baby. She also loves her disco ball.
Kacey can talk now. She says “Hello” and “baby” and “pretty girl”. She absolutely loves seed and honey sticks as a treat but she won’t touch fruit and veg. She has quite a personality and has bonded with me and won’t entertain anyone else. I suppose she is quite shy.
She does love my two shih tzu’s and will watch them chase each other around the room. 
Cooper’s Talent Show
There are so many amazing and talented birds in the world that Cooper decided to showcase one every month.
This is A.J., an Indian Ringneck Parakeet performing some amazing tricks. He even made an appearance on the Martha Stewart show.
