Turkey Day*

Today is also the second anniversary of Cooper’s Corner – so the budgies had two reasons to celebrate.

deweyoatDewey started with an appetizer of oats (his favorite). Yum!

sFirst course was a salad.

o1The main course was Momma Bird’s Caribbean Loaf Birdie Bread (with a side of grated carrot). Ozzie digs in.

a1Alfie LOVED the bread.

a2He went back for a second helping.

a3And a third helping. He needs to work on his table manners, though. We don’t get in our food to eat it, Alfie.

mPlease pass the millet!

dThe budgies had fresh Granny Smith apple slices for dessert.

thanks2Happy Thanksgiving!

*Cooper wanted it to be called “Budgie Day” until she found out what happens to the turkeys.

Alfie joins the flock

aAlfie has finally joined the flock!

acHe met Cooper first – she flew into the room he was in when I left the door open. Oops.

allcageWe moved Alfie’s cage next to the budgies’ cage. Cooper made herself right at home (someone has to destroy Alfie’s toys)! Alfie hasn’t moved into the big cage, but gets outside time with the flock. They’re still establishing a pecking order and we’re not comfortable with leaving them alone yet.

allcage2Here they all are on the big cage (which does not seem so big anymore…).

allgymHanging out on the play gym. I’ll have to work on getting a better photo of them together. They’re not very good at staying still.

asAlfie is fascinated with Sunny. Watch out Dewey!

aoAlfie and Ozzie have become buddies. They like to chase Dewey away from Sunny. Double trouble!
