He reminds me of a little, feathered teddy bear.

Well, all I have is a document/picture folder of my bird pictures. This other stuff is just too high tech for the love/hate relationship I have with my computer.

Bailey discovered the mirror yesterday. He's fascinated by it. Now we give him playtime in front of the mirror in the evenings before bedtime.

I gave Sammie a mirror once. She destroyed it and the frame in about one hour.

the mirror is above my chest of drawers. We sit his cage in front of it so that he can play but not reach it.

I guess Sammie didn't need the mirror, mirror to tell her who the fairest parrot was. She knew.

Or she thinks so. She's pretty much into herself. I have put her on my bathroom counter when I'm getting ready for the day and she'll tap at the mirror with her beak. She also tries to chew on things. I have to really watch her and when I say no, she yells back.

Oh my a back talking bird, how funny is that?

Bailey is so adorable and really looks like a baby bird. I wonder how old it is...

I envy you both your adorable babies.... [Smile]

Yes Chatty, Sammie is very sassy. Just like my kids were. Wonder where they got that from? Me?

Chatty, I think you need to adopt a bird. Really. You would be such a good mommy. Maybe you can look in the want ads and if you see somebody trying to sell one, tell them if they don't get a buyer, you'll take it off their hands. I'm serious.

I never thought I could be a "Bird" person.. but I just know know what'd I'd do without the little fella now. He's so much a part of our famiy. He fits right in. I love watching him do his little tricks.

One of his favorite is hanging upside down by one foot, or his beak. Then he'll give a happy screech.

He's hilarious.

Chatty, I don't have a clue how old Bailey is. He doesn't have any baby feathers, so he's an adult. How old, who knows?

He definitely has a stubborn streak, though. I tried to give him a piece of orange yesterday, he turned up his nose at it. I left it in his cage and he threw it down.

Sammie does that too---hangs upside down by one foot and yells. She's fallen a few times on her head but gets back up and starts it all over again.

I'm a little concerned about a few of the feathers on one of her wings. I think I'm going to take her to the vet to have her checked out.

You know Vicki, when I go to the grocery store the check out clerk always remarks how healthy I eat. If she only knew it was for Sammie and not me!

Dianne, I hope Sammie's vet visit goes well. She has such a good mommy to watch over her and give her lots of yummy things to eat.

We should all probably eat as healthy as our birds, right? [Big Grin]
