What a day!
....tiring but very exciting. I travelled out to my cousines house to pick up her Jardine(Willow) and her Pionus (Edgar)
I didn't realize both were so big....well u know what I mean bigger than I thought they were.
Both birds stepped up without hesitation, but I really seem to bond with the least likely one....the Jardine. Her grip is like a vice, I was quite surprised by that, and has a good weight to her. Heavier than Ninja was, and bigger too.
Wendy called it right!!...Willow is so funny, she does the whoop whoop sound every time I come in the bedroom, so I give her a treat.we go back and forth making funny sounds to each other, I guess she is more interactive, which I really really like in a bird.
my Safari has already picked up her call so now both are doing it, which is a riot.
Edgar is settling in nicely, still analyzing everything, but likes to do somersaults from the cage to his perch....that's entertaining. He has an interesting screech, I hope I don't hear too often, he only did it for a few minutes then stopped. both are strikingly beautiful, and have been well taken care of.
they travelled very well in my truck, I carted two big cages home, 3 bags full of food, toys,java stands etc... the truck was packed solid.
all in all a good day, I have someone coming in tomorrow to look at my baby cockatiels so I must run.
some pics of my new babies
first pic is of Willow, my Jardine, 2nd pic, is of Edgar my Pionus(very camera shy, or probably didn't care much for the flash, he kept turning away,lol)
