Fargo- Blue and Gold Macaw
I was out riding... like i do every single day left at about 11:45am.. Got back inside at 2pm..



Walked into my room......

Fargo's cage was open.. :eek:

I had a heart attack, he has never been out whilst i wasn't with him.. My door to the verandah is fly screen which Fargo destroyed, so unless the glass door is closed, Fargo could easily climb out..


Well i had left the glass door open..

The first thing i thought was Fargo has climbed out the door..

My heart stopped...

This all went through my head in the first second..

About 2 seconds after i walked into my room.. I hear this very tiny, faint hello...


I look behind me, there is Fargo, just sitting perched on his gym..... :eek:




Next thing was.. Ok.. lets see how much he has destroyed.. If you didn't know, Fargo has destroyed 2 keyboards, my ipod and my phone.. Not to mention sooo many pairs of earphones..

So.. I walked over to my desk....


I even had cords just all over the desk because i was doing work..



NOT ONE THING WAS TOUCHED!!!!


Fargo didn't destroy a single thing..




From what i can tell he hasn't even played with toys..

He just flew to his perch, and sat there, probably wondering where i was :p




Gah!!! Almost gave me a heart attack... I am soooo surprised he didn't destroy my keyboard at least.. Or try and climb through the door screen :eek:


Looks like someone will be getting locks on his cage doors now!!! :)



I must be lucky today!!




Off topic.. I got accepted into university to study to be a paramedic ;) Got my acceptance letter this morning!! Woo! :p
 
Glad Fargo was right there and safe! :) Congrats on your acceptance!!

Thanks guys!


He is now being extra cuddly just lying on my lap.. hehe

I would love to know what goes through their head sometimes..


He was probably like yes!! I can escape, i have unlocked the door * evil grin *

but then when he was actually out of his cage, and he was like hang on a second.... mum isn't here.. i shouldnt be out here.. ohhhh noooo.. mummmmm :(


hahahaha



I have to go out all day tomorrow... Those doors are going to be sealed extra tightly !! ;)
 
Congratulations on your acceptance to university!

Close shave with Fargo, but what a good boy!!
 
Congrats on getting into the university Tab!!!!

Glad Fargo was being good. I put a lock on Willie's cage for the same reason. Otherwise he would be out roaming around as well.
 
I'm so glad Fargo was ok it must have been the longest couple of seconds. Congrats on your acceptance :)
 
Congrats on your uni acceptance Tab. :) you will make a wonderful and caring paramedic.

Fargo you are such a clever boy but giving your mum heart failure like that, naughty, naughty :). Glad it all turned out ok in the end.
 
Dear Tab. I know why Fargo had a feral day on the 4th. As you (and everyone) should know, it was Alice Cooper's Birthday! Fargo was just celebrating along with the rest of us.
PS. If you need to know who Alice Cooper is, then check him out on Google. You would do well to listen to his album, 'Welcome to My Nightmare': it is quite excellent and almost as uplifting as a recital of Bach cantatas. :D :D :D

PPS. Yeah! Get a padlock! I would never in a million years have believed Barney could open the cage gate, but he did. Clearly, he and Fargo are Gifted and Talented and capable of exceptional thinking. They must be watched...
 
I think it is a boy thing Tab and Trish...... You don't see our beautiful girls misbehaving...... Go Madge and Bundii.:)

OF COURSE I KNOW WHO ALICE COOPER IS!!! ;)

'Poison' was always my song, when i was younger i used to run around singing it when dad used to play it! :rolleyes:

I think we actually have a video of me when i was about 11 singing it hahaha



That must of been it though, was trying to be crazy and screaming for his idol Alice ;)





It is amazing how they can figure out how to get out of their cages!! It is also interesting why they suddenly decide one day to escape?

I ride Kyros each day, and Fargo is left alone... But today he decided it was time to escape... He has escaped twice before, once through the feeder door and another through the top, but both them times i was in my room!! :)


I think we should enter Barney and Fargo in some magic show, they can be the next Houdinis ;)
 
ROTFL! Great idea! I think Fargo and Barney would look quite stunning side by side: think of all the colours!

My Hubby went to see Alice in concert a few years ago. His kids had given him front row seats at the Ent.Cent. in Sydney. Well, when Alice sang 'Poison', he sang it TO KIM!!! Every time he sang 'You're poison', he would point at Kim, who blushed like a maiden (said my step-kids) and grinned all over his face. How I wish I'd been there to see that! My fave Alice song is 'Cold Ethyl'. :)
 
Congrats on getting in to your chosen course. I'm sure you'll love it.

You're very lucky that Fargo didn't Gofar.... sorry. really. :D

I've done that, left the cage open while I've gone to fill up the water and gone omg, and she's just been sitting there waiting for me. I've been very careful since then.
 
Fargo never ceases to amaze me, Tab. He's an amazingly gifted bird! Looks like he just escaped to prove that he could. Keeping you on your toes. Lol! I'm so glad nothing happened in your absence.

And heartfelt congratulations on your acceptance!!! Looks like Fargo isn't the only gifted one. ;)

Thank you!! Will be very interesting!


HAHA you know the breeders made that joke, because they thought Fargo was a weird name, and they said, will he Gofar? ;) haha



Really!! I love how they just sit and wait.. :rolleyes: The door on Fargo's cage is super easy to open once they know how, hence it has to be tied now :54:
