Seven birds eating breakfast

It's not easy to get breakfast organised when you have seven hungry beaks to feed. Especially when they don't all stay in the same place at the same time, sometimes it's possible to get a good photo though.

Yum yum say the birds.

Didn't I tell you Snowy was addicted to corn?





He stood on it while the others pecked at the edges to get to the last of the tasty niblets. He was like a budgie on a podium, I half expected him to do a little dance.

Lately he has taken to spinning the plastic budgie (attached to the play centre) round and round.

He also feels the need to detach the bell ball from the end of the hook and fling it as far as he can - like a discus.

Here they are - my favourite trouble makers..

Scary Strawberries, Buttons and flying

The husband brought back some bargain Strawberries from the supermarket at the weekend so we thought that they might make a tempting treat for the Budgies.

However, this was not the case.  We put them on a little glass dish on the top of the “Summer Palace” for them to try.  Honestly you would think that we were trying to poison them with the lovely red fruit.  We tried pretending to eat it ourselves to show it was not going to murder them, but to no avail.  I guess that the banana and strawberry salad is going to be one to work on!

Monty has been vying for attention all day, flying around our heads and my laptop, out into the kitchen (he knows that one gets our attention as he’s not allowed out there)

I caught a great photo of him nibbling on a button.

See.  I aint scared of no red stuff

Roswell and Jerry have been up to their usual stuff, showing off to each other, flying about doing somersaults and tricks in the air. They look so amazing with all of their feathers out, so bright and colourful.

Roswell is quite a fast mover for an exhibition bird, he must weight twice what Jerry does but is learning to move almost as fast and gracefully – almost.

Budgie air show – Jerry over Roswell and then Roswell over Jerry!
