- Amy a Blue Front 'Zon
Jonesy a Goffins 'Too who had to be rehomed :-(
And a Normal Grey Cockatiel named BB who came home with me on 5/20/2016.
It has been a while since Amy has been out and about,so I had a few errands to run,and asked her if she wanted to join me. Of course she agreed 
so our first stop was at my local town hall to pay the electric and sewer. There were about five ladies there behind the counter for help.
When they saw Amy come in on my shoulder,they all "ohhhh and ahhhh'd" about her and came up to take a look and ask questions.
One gal asked if she was friendly,does she talk,biteeek:) etc.
Amy was quiet,not a peep from her,and was very calm,perching on my hand. I told the gal to extend her hand to mine and just ask Amy to "step up". she asked and Amy complied,lifting one footsie,with a little "uncertain" hesitation,and walked right onto the gal's hand. More "oohhhh's and ahhhh's" and I could tell the woman was so excited about having my little green girl on her hand.
Out came the cell phones from the rest of them,taking pictures.
Amy seemed nonchalant about the whole thing but the ladies were all giddy and smiles lol. A
my obviously was a big hit with them!
The next stop was the local donut factory for a cup of joe :44: for me and a plain munchkin for Amy. We drove around to the parking lot where there were four of our regular buddies hanging out by the cars. Amy sat on the side rails of Richs' pick-up as I talked about her to the others.
Rich was sitting in his truck,it started to sprinkle,and started to get a tad chilly,where Amy then fluffed up a bit and started to quiver a bit. I put Amy on Richs' door ( window fully opened of course). Rich started the truck to put the heat on,and I didn't notice he had put work gloves on and Asked her to step up. She poofed up in an instant and latched onto Richs' gloved hand! ( Amy has never seen a glove in her life,doesn't even know what they are)
His instinct was to shake his hand,and poor Amy,with a fresh set of short sleeves on her arms,fell/flailed to the pavement! I immediately picked her up,while poor Rich was yelling "OMG OMG is Amy ok Jim?? OMG I'm so sorry!!"
Amy was fine,and so was Richs' finger lol.
The last stop was her favorite place,to see her favorite fans,the green armed bee bee's,and for a toy for her and a bag of treats for Beebs.
As we walked into the "bird" room...we could hear all sorts of twittles and chirps and whistles going on.
There was a large round house,with a dozen Beebers in it,all normal greys,just like BB. Amy saw them,thought they were BB lol..and started yelling HELLO!! HOW ARE YOU??? Those little tiels stopped in their tracks,up went their hats,eyes bugged out..and they all RAN to one perch,and huddled together like they were a street gang,ready to rumble lol.
The green armed bee bee's ( about 6 of them) saw Amy,ran to the glass panel,climbing over each other,to get a better look at the big green monster. They all started to twittle and chirp to her,as she mumbled back in 'zon lingo,bobbing her head,having a good time.
Then...back to the car...and back home.
Despite her little incident at the donut factory,I still think she had a good time.
OK...SORRY for being so long :34:
