Just for fun! Peanut (L) and Popcorn (R) in harmonious times. They were represented as wild-caught and in prior owner's custody for 12 years when I purchased them in 1987. Moved them to this flight cage with nest box circa 1993 where they had three live births, all hand-fed when abandoned after 2 to 3 days. Male aggression surfaced around 2007 and they were eventually permanently separated. Peanut tamed beyond my wildest expectations and lives with two of her offspring. Popcorn is extremely happy paired with my Citron. Both extremely healthy and active considering they are in their mid 40s.

Scott, thank you, thank you! One of my all time favorite stories and a photo of Peanut and Popcorn! I love the power couple and their beautiful kids. I’m so glad both Peanut and Popcorn found a happy future after the great celebrity breakup. All the years you’ve shared your home with your wonderful flock is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing the sweet photo and story.

Rival, I hope you grabbed your bug out bag and took off to a safe location to wait out the storm!!!
 
It was deemed funny, hence no repercussions, Allee. The POTM is a good place to act out because the Missus is always in such a good mood here. :) An especially happy-making contest this month.

Thank you, Rival! I was worried for your health there for a second. Please give Ms. Sunshine a hug for me and thank her for not banishing you.

Love the names of the new realty offices, should be a lucrative enterprise!
 
Just completed a tour of the entries for this POTM contest. True inspiration to be found this month.

I noted that there is still a bit of time to get a photo in and grab the prize!


Great passage last night. Still waters and warm air made for a delightful lake crossing. Later.
 
Hi there everyone! Merlin has been a handful lately and not really been playing with his toys, guess hes looking for some new toys. He still likes to play, but recently has loved singing.
That's right!! Merlin SINGS!! Mainly to Loretta Lynn. What can I say, he has good taste. But its absolutely amazing to hear this rescued weirdo singing!! Especially since hes only been with me 2 months.
Here he is, laying down watching a movie with his mommie today. He loves being on the chair with mom.
Thanks everyone!!

Cairo will be celebrating 1 year with us next month! We won't be able to celebrate that day since it's also National Day here in Singapore. He's only 20mo, and we're so happy to have actually found out his hatch date :)

His absolute favourite time of the day is when he goes "fly-fly". And he knows how to talk about it too :p
"Cairo, do you want to go fly-fly?" "FLY-FLY!!!", or
"Fly-fly?" "No, Cairo, we can't go today.." "SQUARK!!!" *angry mutters

Awww, this is a great photo! Merlin looks adorable watching TV with you! Sounds like your handsome boy may have put his toys away temporarily to launch his music career! Good luck, Merlin.

Amazing photo of gorgeous Cairo! No question he’s loving his flight time!
I’m glad you found his actual hatch date, that’s a great thing to know.

Spectacular image, Cairo resembles a lifelike kite!
 
Just for fun. New beginnings. I posted more details in the cockatoo forum, but this is Sydney. He began his new life today. First with me while we get him healthy, then hopefully we will find the perfect forever home when he is ready.
