Ollybird Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Hi, I have been shyly lurking here awhile B) I got my baby grey Olly about two months ago and have been coming here for advice and tips, and now that Olly is nicely settled into his new home, I thought it's about time I registered and introduced myself to the friendly people here. So - hello everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollybird Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Thanks everyone for the kind welcomes . Olly is a sweetheart and I absolutely love him. I am enjoying his babyhood and know all that might change when he hits his 'terrible twos', but I have a preteen human daughter and am used to tantrums anyway! Like any proud mom I do have lots of photos of Olly, and would like to share them! (I hope the photos upload ok) When he's not with me indoors, he spends most of his day on our garden swing, as you can see I've turned it into a rather large playstand! I got the large green rope from a fishing and boating supply store and twisted it round the legs of the swing for Olly to climb up and down on. (I made a little swing for him with the leftover length, thanks to the inspiration from other members' photos on this forum!) He is free to climb down onto the grass, and I think it satisfies his need to 'forage', which he does for a couple of hours each day (I scatter seeds for him). The other photos are of Olly having his breakfast, watched over by my 6 year old German Shepherd Zoe, who seems to have appointed herself Olly's bodyguard! Zoe is the sweetest, kindest teddy bear of a dog, and the two of them seem to have forged a bond in the last two months. (Olly has learnt to bark a little, too!) Zoe chases away the sparrows which come to steal Olly's food, and with Zoe around, Olly is also safe from any neighborhood cat that might be passing by. Thanks again for the warm welcomes, I am glad to have found such a nice group of people in this forum!

judygram Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Oh boy, Olly is one spoiled bird, what a life he leads, I love that rope around the swing with the hoop in the middle, I'll just bet he has the biggest time on it, thanks for sharing some pics with us and Zoe is a good dog.

Ollybird Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 Just wanted to share one more photo of these two just hangin' out this morning and doing their things - Olly with his breakfast french bean and Zoe with her chewy toy! Thanks, Judygram, Olly does love his big playstand - it gives me such pleasure to just watch these guys being happy, and it's so nice to know the people here understand just what I mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
