NOT A HORSE,BUT

Post by mummsie » Sat Oct 22, 2011 8:47 pm

Just thought as every one else has shared their pet photos, I'd show you one of mine. This king parrot visits us most days, he especially loves having breakfast with us. He is usually accompanied by his girlfriend, but she didn't turn up today, probably got a better offer. We have quite a few who visit regularly, but none as quiet as this fellow. We always know when he arrives, he sits on one of the deck chairs and crains his neck at the window, chattering away, as if to say ''Well, it's breakfast time'' His great company.

How privileged are you Sue that a wild bird gives you his trust so freely...a special moment to be totally enjoyed he is gorgeous, I am envious - hope he continues to share his time and his girlfriend with you. Lovely photo

Cheers

You are SO clever Sue. He's gorgeous. You are lucky. We get lots of birds here and some aren't too fussed about people, but none are tame..

Oh wow Sue, he is stunning! We have lots of birds that come to nibble at the grain I put out, but none are as tame as your fellow. He's very special. Is his girlfriend the same colours? Don't the females tend to be less colourful?

Yes, the girls are never as pretty in the bird world Kym. She decided to turn up for brekkie today, as you can see, he doesn't mind a cup of tea. :)

Beautiful Birds Sue and you are very lucky to have them trust you so much. We have a pair visit us but their visits are getting less and less as surburbia takes over.

Can never get this close as the bloody dogs scare them off.
