and then it rained!

Wow, the sky just got dark and it’s suddenly started raining really hard, I heard someone scream outside and someone shouted “I’m getting really soaked”, always funny when it's happening to someone else :D

The budgies do not like the dark sky, Roswell and Jerry are perched on the soap dish on the window staring out at it wondering if it means the worlds millet supply is no more (It’s as deep as they can get to “it’s the end of the world”)

Snowy and Monty are playing about inside Budgingham palace pretending all is as normal but secretly wondering why the room and sky have got dark and who stole the shiny bright thing that shines on them and makes then happy.

They haven’t been subjected to thunder and lightning yet, wonder what they’ll make of that?

 

I have to keep changing things around to keep the fiends happy

 

 

When they’re happy, they don’t fight

 

They still stare at me a lot though

 

Monty can even sometimes tolerate Jerry

 

Well….almost

 

My Grey beauty Roswell is happy when he has his basil and his Jerry :)

New member of the flock!

It’s a clay budgie that my mum brought me back from Eastbourne, it’s a third of the size of a real budgie and it’s a female, but my four feisty boys are petrified of it :)

With the absence of my camera (husband is borrowing it) today the photos are going to be a bit cack, sorry!

 

I’m evil evil evil as can be, don’t mess around with me

 

Some lovely vegetables to try and distract the boys from fighting and cussing each other

 

What shall I try first Monty, corn or Mange Tout?

Did you know that they buy the expensive stuff for us, they don’t eat any?

 

 

Hey, that Mange Tout and corn is the same colour as me!

 

 

Basil, you have not defeated the Montyraptor, I’ll be back.

 

Mmmm this Trill is GOOOOOOOOD!

 

 

I might jump in this and roll about in a minute

 

 

Must ask them to get some differently coloured foods

Today is dedicated to THE EVIL ONE..

Monty bit me again today!

It was totally unprovoked and he just wouldn’t let up, he climbed on my finger and then just started attacking it and squiggling at me (it’s the noise that they make when annoyed, sounds like a miniature horse)

So today is dedicated to the evil terror known as King Monty..

Evil Glare as Jerry and Roswell play

Climbing up the budgie screen, planning an escape route

What are YOU staring at?

Snowy looks cheerful as Monty GLARES..

 

Why are you still watching me?

I’m stretching – go away!

Are YOU still here?

I am giving you the Monty Death Glare..

Look at those three having fun without me, how dare they. I have the biggest cahones!

I’m so small and cute and fluffy, LOVE ME!

This one photo just about sums up the budgies today

Snowy has been going about his daily business, eating, preening getting on with being a budgie and doing budgie things. Roswell has been following him around trying to become his best friend for the day, this is annoying Jerry who is getting really jealous and trying to chase Snowy away. Which of course is annoying Monty so he’s standing up on the rack with his feet as far apart as the little chap can manage. He is doing his best “I’m so huge I look like I have been riding a big horse, don’t mess with me” which is really funny because he’s the tiniest of all the budgies.

Get off your horse and drink your milk

Look into my eyes, look into my eyes, not around my eyes, you’re under!

3,2,1, you’re back in the room – give us a kiss. Penny for your thoughts Monty?

 

Missile one – GO GO GO GO! Ready missile two?

 

Snowy “I think I can see a bald spot”

Today’s Evil Monty Picture

If you don’t go away I shall claw you to death with my tiny foot, I am raising it now! GO!

If you're looking for trouble
You came to the right place
If you're looking for trouble
Just look right in my face
I was born standing up
And talking back
My daddy was a green-eyed mountain jack
Because I'm evil, my middle name is misery
Well I'm evil, so don't you mess around with me
