The boy is 1! :D
Raven is a late bloomer. He still has his 'muddy' baby colors. He only started dropping a few feathers per week since last month. The adult Bronze Winged is a beautiful dark blue on the front and head. I'm waiting... Lol. :) He's late, the BW I had before him was already half in color by 1 year old.

My order from MSBS should be here in several days (surprises for everyone :)) but for today the toys I gave Raven was an SS skewer that I've refilled with new wood blocks, also a coconut toy that I've taken the ugly sisal rope off of and re-strung with braided leather and beads. It's actually new, I never could find a place to put it, so didn't use it til now. The coconut could be used for treats, foot toys, stuffed with paper, etc. Today I think I'll put Nutriberries in it :)

I told Raven that Delfin, an Aussie Alex's b-day is today also. He started mumbling something. I think he was trying to say to tell him happy birthday :D


 
HAPPY B-DAY RAVEN!!! Have a wonderful day! I love the coconut and ladder toy!
 
Happy birthday Raven! I see the toys, but wheres the birthday boy?

Love the little coconut-hut BTW! Wish they made XL ones of those (if you get a pic of him in there that would be adorable:D)

I know, LOL pics are coming... A little "someone" kept trying to photo bomb :D

The coconut toy is too small for their body. It's really made for Lovebirds and that size. I figure they can reach their heads in and get stuff out.

I need to get to my phone to post pics. Coming.... ;)

Mr. Handsome was actually taking time to sit and purposely "pose" for his photos today!




Uh oh! Looks like someone else 'accidentally' got in the pic... :52:

 
Theres the birthday bird:D Raven is so pretty, he has such uniquely colored plumage for a parrot.

And what little someone is peeking above Raven's shoulder in the 3rd pic?
 
Happy hatch day Raven. Sure looks like you are enjoying your self. :D

Maybe Griffin was playing a game of happy birthday peek-a-boo?? :)

Thanks... Just wait til he has his 'adult color' plumage! :) Dark blue body with pink throat and metallic bronze wings. I can't wait. He's looking a little scruffy now from molting a little.

That darn Griffin... He is always 'assuming' that everything is always about HIM, and everything is HIS :20:. It's actually pretty funny.
 
Happy hatchday, Raven! Dominic, Barney and Madge send their very best wishes (and jolly squawks) in celebration. Barney is also a late bloomer and he says not to sweat it: all good things come to those who only stand and wait! You are a most attractive young man and anyone can see the beginnings of a very macho-looking bird. Those sexy bronze wings are to die for!!! XX

Lol Trish, thanks:). I'll tell Raven that Barney is a late bloomer too, and that he's okay with it :D. I'll also tell him that you said he's looking like a macho young man, as he doesn't see many ladies to give him complements! :D

LOL!
Oh hi Mango... It's you.
It's Julie here **hands on hips, tapping foot, furrowed brow** I have been very careful not to let MY boys see the forum!! I will not have them participate in such debauchery! :11:

My Raven is SO innocent, that the only other girls he's seen before were his sisters!!:eek: Trust me, he's just not your type Mango. You go and hang out with that GCC Larry instead!
 
Happy Birthday Raven! You lucky boy, your Mommy must love you so much to get you those great new toys:)
Julie, Raven is gorgeous! Those colours!!!

Raven and Griffin enjoying their Nutriberries. Griffin was done first, and of course tried to steal from the birthday boy! Raven wouldn't have done that to Griffin... That Griffin is rude! Lol


Raven enjoying a dish of "birthday seeds"... ALONE. Oh no, he sees someone approaching... Actually, I was surprised that Griffin didn't join in the seeds tonight. He just let Raven eat in peace for once.


Robin had his treats and is happy playing by himself :)


I couldn't get a good shot of Twigs the Budgie, but he was enjoying his special treats too :)
 
My apologies to GORGEOUS Raven for my belated but sincere Birthday wishes!!! :) Scritches and cuddles for everyone. :D
 
Glad everyone enjoyed their treats! It sounds like Griffin even enjoyed someone else's (treat the naughty little thing). I sure hope Raven always wanted a little buddy, because it looks like he has one for life now;) Robin is adorable too, hanging upside down on his toy:)
