Pictures of My Birds

[Catherine]

You do have the most amazing birds. A flock or even two cockatoos would be an unforgettable sight. The zoo here did a lorikeet display one summer in an outdoor aviary. It was beautiful, but they were so loud. They didn't do it again the next year. Could it be that pretty as they were we are just not used to such loud birds.

I would love to see a flock of wild budgies. Escaped budgies here will join flocks of sparrows and seem to do okay. If they could find food and shelter in the winter they could live here. They are a clever and resourceful little bird. 
It must be fun to breed them. Do the parents feed their own babies or do you have to hand feed them?
