Greywings

Timber has developed reasonable boundaries, wow.

May his dreams of a quiet home be augmented with a noise cancelling headset. Be good little birdies.

What a relief! Calgon moment for sure.

A grey with a foot obsession, thought that was only Too's.

May be a Quaker too, hope it remains safe & good luck out there trying for Rescue.

Lovely lovely parrot.

I love that entry in your diary of feathers. So much happens every day that it is easy to let it slip past with out recording. The memories fade a bit and having it written makes even the little quiet moment last. Thank you for the inspiration.

The sneeze that caught his ear, at least you are aware of his fascination with the sound so will not be thinking he is sick.

I also use the sproutpeople.com sprouter the little one works just fine for us. The flock enjoys the Volkmans as well sprouted or cooked. Small world.

1) Born in the UK 2) Moved often as a child growing up we raised an orphan sparrow, lost and injured animals often found their way to our house. 3) Married a Texan 4) Grew up and filled my dream job- zookeeper 5) Cancer Survivor! 6)adding one more to the list-our kids were raised helping with rescue work

Hubbys sister is Larita and their cousin is Lorita perhaps she knows one of them. Sadico is Portugese for sadistic-hope that is not her thank you word. I hate to say it but with the Parakeets, Cockatiels, Greys & Cockatoo their are currently 12 birds here, subject to change.

Maybe the birds can teach you enough Spanish to get by?

My eyes are what I aim to protect, not so concerned about the Greys as I know who does and does not want to remove tissue for DNA study. The Too's as much as I love them are not shoulder birds for me. Fred fred is such a sweet heart but he is a Too and a Sulfer Crested at that so can be hypervigilant he is usually relaxed when with me but still face is off limit.

They just haven't found you yet...

The question is who was more frightened you or her? They recover fast after they know all is well, just that sudden change on your hand, it may have been a predator trying to eat your finger.

Sorry for your injury, that hurts your feelings as well as your arm. She must have thought the visitor was a danger you needed to avoid. A shame you have such boring weekends nothing to entertain yourselves with-LOL. Will you being looking for a place in the same area or elsewhere to make your bird haven?

Love her name and what a great transition. She is a confident Grey speaks well of her first home.

Welcome and what a sweet baby. Would love to see some pics of your other feathered friends too.

They bounce back pretty quickly, amazing critters. Hope your recovery is following suit.

You worked with what you saw and reacted properly to what seemed to be the problem. After the clean up you found the root of the blood loss and it is easy to see how your miss observation happened, no harm done so all good.

LOL who knows Ray that may be a method?

Yes they can pull feathers with those talented feet, I have seen it done. Vocal talent in Cockatoos is not tuneful for sure.
