This little grey girl bird is named Captain. She is 29 and quite delighted to eat my special bird muffins! Her feather issues are somewhat alarming however perhaps we can work on that. After all, my Maji was down to one tail feather and now he’s pretty darn handsome! Miracles do happen.

Ricky seems to love having a bowl of interesting foot toys to investigate. Inside that Dixie cup is a nut treasure. Pieces of wood and objects of interest are yet to be discovered. A toy box bowl works wonders at entertaining a smart bird. Go Ricky!!!

Red aka Big Bird and Lucy get along just like sisters. They love each other but also bicker and squabble now and then. “You preen me…no you preen me!” “I got your tail!” “Hey! Cut that out!” We feel they benefit greatly having each other. We love them both so much.

Mac nuts are a favorite for Crawford, however the thick shell is too much for the others. These have been carefully sliced along the shell giving the birds an opening to get them started. Search for BESTORE MAC NUTS on Amazon.

Saturday afternoon with some therapy for the Parrot Nanny. Exciting NASCAR race and a gentle giant who gets comatose during the preening session. Life is good.

New little dog now on the premises. Ren has excellent hearing with those focused bat ears. However he is now super confused because both of my greys have mastered the whistles and calls for him to come. Poor Ren is eager to please and comes running…only to find out that it was a grey’s call not us. At least he gets a lot of exercise.

Success! How to get Ricky into his carrier without stressing either him or me. I enticed him with a small piece of toast. ( His irresistible favorite). Calm demeanor and patience was required as he considered his options. Eventually the toast won out. However he forgot about his toast when he realized that Dolly was close. Such a guy! Hopefully the next visit will be more relaxed for us.

Ricky is a new guest here. His long life (50+yrs) is a mystery but he’s definitely fearful of people. He charges towards any attempt at approach. What some people call aggression I feel is more fear based. I have so much compassion for whatever has made him react this fiercely. I moved sweet Dolly (same species) next to him. They speak the same language and Ricky immediately relaxed. His new mom rescued him and he will now have the life he deserves.

Millie requires meds for arthritis. Coming up with new ways to administer is challenging. First one must find an item that will be devoured with gusto. Millie loves bananas. I made a divot in the middle and put in the meds. I plugged it with a kernel of corn. She held it and scooped out the yummy treat and got her medicine too!

Maji is becoming a normal bird. I’m happy and sad at the same time. He now enjoys going to the outdoor cages during the nice days. But I miss his continuous banter in the house. He’s finally confident and secure after being somewhat neglected by a forgetful woman who had dementia. My theory is that his constant comments and sound effects were his way of saying “Hey, I’m over here!” It’s literally haunting when he asks “Are you there?” Truly a wonderful companion who has gone from a completely plucked parrot to a handsome boy bird.
