Birds

Anyone own any?

Here in Australia we have got some beautiful birds. For the past two months i have been leaving seed out, and finally this week they started to arrive, thanks to the person above me, whose bread fell to my balcony.

anyway, they wake me up every morning and are here in the evening. and they are such pigs. these two ate so much seed today. but they are so pretty. anyway a few pics.

last pics is my cat looking on in anguish, b/c she isnt an outdoor cat

Re: Birds

I remember some of the birds from Australia....they were gorgeous. And very friendly (extremely strange)....here, they ate right out of your hands!!! (the ones on our shoulders are from a butterfly sanctuary we visited in Cairns---they came pre-trained) Sorry, don't have any pet birds to share stories....

Re: Birds

nice pics! the second pic is one of my favourite birds- the galah is one of my favourites. a few were flying across the school field across the street from me. then a big cockatoo came and stole the lorikeets bread. must put more out for the morning....

cairns is beautiful. they have some nice birds up there. sydney doesnt get as many tropical birds in the wild as they do. i found it strange that these birds allowed me that close to them; so much different from the ones i have seen in the zoo.

I have birds!!! Well, Chickens actually. 8 of them, they are all hens & they lay eggs everyday.
Here they are when I first got them-I had 27, but adopted most of them out when they were two weeks old.

when they were a couple of months old
