Best Day Ever!

[Mamanda]

Keen decided I'm not so scary after all! I sat on the floor while she was walking around my office. She came up to me and I gave her a sunflower seed (which she LOVES). Then I placed one on my shoulder and she stepped over and grabbed it. Then again. Then without a seed offering I asked her to "come see Mommy". She stepped onto my shoulder and hung out there, preening my hair and rubbing her beak on my face, for over an hour! I was so happy and excited, I almost cried! I didn't make any attempts to touch her, because historically that doesn't go well, and I just wanted it to be good for her. We talked, watched CNN, and mostly just told her what a good girl she was.
BEST DAY EVER! And you know what ... the HUGE pile of poop on the back of my shirt doesn't bother me a bit! Geez ... I am so in love!
Oh yeah - and I was the one who ended up putting her back in her cage (She didn't bolt off!) - I need lunch! - and she had been out for about 2 1/2 hours - I knew she needed at least a drink of water and a nibble of food.

That is wonderful news...and yeah I have had my share of being "pooped" on. The local pet store owners call it "bonding" LOL. But yeah I will wash and so will my clothes so it is no big deal...

Fantastic!!

Try giving her safflower seeds instead of sunflower seeds. They're healthier! neither of my birds can get enough of 'em!

I can understand why you're so excited... All these little milestones... Today, my alex - Max - asked me for a kiss... He didn't say it in that many words, just made a little sound and lifted his head.. it was just too cute.

My quaker - Shrek - loved to give me a facial... and being 60+ there was always lots of work for him to do... He would go over my whole face and take out every stray hair.. Shrek was never one for cuddling, but he was always very, very gentle with my face... My daughter was terrified watching him doing this... lol

Enjoy your little girl... She sounds just gorgeous.
