 We have 2 green cheeks and were at the vet with one of them. We were so excited to see this adorable lorikeet in a cage there. We were fussing over him and a worker asked if we were interested in adopting him because his owner was ill and could no longer care for him. We were ecstatic! We contacted the owner and she was pleased to find a family who would love and care for him. So here he is.. ;)
Mom uploaded a Video of me playing in my birdie room yesterday and posted it on here. Check me out. I am so cute! look up mango playing in the playing section of the videos.. Cya later.. hugs xxxx Mango 3/22/10

Hi Mango
You're probably shocked to hear from me...I don't have much blogging time as Mom gets busy and distracted with other things. But I just wanted to say WAY TO GO on Monday's game...you played great! For myself, I was rather distracted by something on my foot and didn't concentrate like I should have. Mom laughs a lot at me 'cause I am obsessed with my toes and she doesn't understand the fascination.
Well, anyway, it was a good game, and I'll see ya soon at the stadium.
Hugs and a vote4you.

DAY 20 ~ THANKS FOR THE VOTE!
DANIA’S VACATION TO LEBANON part 1
Last year, in February 2012, my parents were discussing about my dad’s sister and his mom going to Lebanon to pay their sister insurance. My dad paid 1000$ every month to his sisters because his oldest sister had two grown children and their parents were divorced. In addition, the other sister who lived with them worked as a teacher and tried paying for the family. When I heard about it, I soon said I wanted to go to Lebanon too, to see my aunts, my cousin and family. My parents thought about it then, they decided that it would be my birthday present to go to Lebanon. I was glad but unfortunately I had to wait until end of March. I was usually impatient so I tried getting it out of my mind for a while. Then it was finally the day where me, my grandma and my aunt were heading to Lebanon. We sat at the airport where my dad worked, and went to a restaurant to have breakfast. Then it was time to say our goodbyes, I was leaving for two weeks and I was already crying, missing my parents. It was the first time I was gone that long from my parents and first time I was going on vacation during the school days. Furthermore, we boarded the plane and took off to head to Lebanon, Beirut. To be continued…..Come visit me, DJ LUIGI-Vote for me BOTM!!!!!!! & Calypso- THANKS FOR BOTD! Happy Mother's day!.

Hi from Micky
Mom and I cannot believe I am 9 years old already. I came to Mom when I was only a couple of months old and now I am a big boy and so independent. My entire flock lucked out because Mom cleaned all our cages outdoors and she gave every birdy a new toy, but I got TWO new toys and some treats. To make things better, I got BOTD. What more could a bird want. Spending a day in that Man Cave with King Jetta was something a bit different from the usual castle experience but it was loads of fun. Thanks so much for coming by to wish me a Happy Hatchday and to congratulate me on BOTD. I do hope you got a piece of the cake Lizzie baked - she is the best! Mom made cookies but they don't compare to the cake. Sorry Mom... giving Mom a kiss. See you on the baseball field!Come visit me, Leroy, Little Bit & Chloe - Thank you everybirdy!!, Gizmo - Thanks everybirdy for BOTD!, Max, Jasper, Right Fielder for the MAJOR LEAGUE BEAKS, Micky - Thanx for the Hatchday Wishes & BOTD!, Pepper - Thanks everybirdy for BOTD!, TiPaul - I'm a SILVER SLUGGER, Floop - Thanx for the Bday wishes & for BOTD, Marley - BOTD again!

Hi Mango
How are u sweetie? Mom only got a few blogs out yesterday, so she's sending the same blog with some new added to it! Mom got her cortisone injections in both of her shoulders yesterday, which she gets every 3 months. She usually gets some relief almost instantly, but her right shoulder actually feels worse today! Mom also went to her granddaughter's preschool graduation last evening! I had an exciting day today! It was mom's granddaughter Olivia's last day of preschool, & I got to go! Most of Livi's classmates came running up to mom at the graduation last night, very excited that I'm coming to their class today! Mom takes me to the preschool classes there every year, & I love seeing all the kids as much as they love seeing me! The only difficult part of any excursions, is mom getting me back into my carrier!
Mom is doing good today, but her nose is very sore! Mom has been giving me belly kisses for nearly 16 yrs, without incident! It's swollen on the right side & a bit bruised, even tho the damage was done on the inside! Because my nails & toes are so long, most of the damage was 2 inches down in the nasal cavity! The ER Doc said it was a good thing mom had previously had her adenoids removed, coz my nails would have destroyed the right one! Mom has to be rechecked in 2 weeks, or immediately if she starts bleeding again! She had to be cauterized in 4 different places & has to take an antibiotic! Mom said that the scariest part of having my toes stuck up her nose, was that she was very afraid my 2 toes would end up broken...mom was very relieved that my toes are absolutely fine! Mom refers to this incident as "NoseGate 2013"!
Mom doesn't want anyone to think that the ER Nurses & Docs were being discourteous, they were not! They were picturing a tiny pet bird, like a Budgie, not a large Macaw! Mom showed them a pic of me, they weren't expecting me to be so big! When mom said "Be glad I got her loose before I came in"! That's when they started laughing!
I hope u had a great day sweetie!

Hi Mango
Great game yesterday, way to go! I bet you're happy!
What a ball game yesterday! Congratulations to the Phoenix Base Flyers, you pulled off a great win, but the Rainforest Raiders have nothing to be ashamed of. With the way they're playing, they won't lose many games this year.
Mom had 3 tours today, and she says if you have to have 3, this is the way to go: she had different grade levels and different subjects for each tour. We got the fountain up and running last night, too, so it looks pretty outside now, and we'll be able to hear the water when we go outside with mom. Today it's bright and sunny so we might get out, if mom gets our blogs done in time. Hope you are having a great day, hugs, GizmoCome visit me, Gizmo, VOTE LUIGI BOTM 225307, Willie,YAY, the Keets have a team!, In Divo's memory & Falco, VOTE LUIGI( 225307) BOTM.

Hi Mango
I am soooo excited cause we played our first game today and we won…by one point but a win at least!! Today was moms day out with the girls and though we missed her we know she needs these days too. Mom was with her sister and the skin sis and they went shopping and did lunch/ dinner together. Dad was home and on his own too but he helped us too so it wasn’t too bad but we all know mom is the glue that holds it all together LOL. “Friendship, like flowers, blooms ever fair, when carefully tended by dear friends that care.” Leaving a big ole vote for you my friend….Chi chi.Come visit me, Gus & Chi chi ..

Heya, Mango!
Well, the weekend was good here. Mom had her birdthday and went over by some friends for a get-together. She got a little sun-burned but not bad. She had a good time, and when she came home she and I spent the rest of the day together. Weather is pretty nice here, but we are supposed to get the bad stuff coming in over the next couple days. I sure don't like that bad weather, and am really hoping that the folks in Oklahoma are feeling that good thoughts and prayers coming their way. Mom hates to see those things...we had one small one years ago, but the winds were fierce and the rain was bad. Mom was out in it, trying to get home before the storm hit--and did not know there was a tornado nearby. Can't imagine the force of this one today...an F5 for sure.
Oh, ya, my own birdthday is on Wednesday! I will be 23 years with Mom!!! Not bad, huh?

Hi Mango!!
Mom got me outside for my sunbath at 9 this morning, and it is a good thing she did. We listened to the local news on the radio, and so she knew it was gonna be a hot one! It hit 93 at 1, and it is still 85 here at 3. Thank goodness it is supposed to only be in the mid 80s for a high tomorrow. I will still get out early though.
Mom let herself be shanghaied from the gym after zumba to be taken out to lunch. That sounds very nice I am sure, but she totally forgot about my ballgame! And Rosie did such a terrific job of calling it, and I played well and your eggciting final catch was a nail biter. She missed the whole thing and had to read about it after the fact. And she promised! I am so mad at her I could bite~!

Hi Mango & family
How are u sweetie? I didn't do my blogging yesterday, mom & I were involved in a bizarre, freak accident early yesterday afternoon! I was unscathed, but mom wasn't as lucky...she's fine now, but very sore!
When mom is holding me, I like her to kiss my belly! She kissed me on my birdie nose, then I told her KISS BAAALLY! At the same time she raised me up, I lifted my left leg, & somehow, my front 2 toes slipped into mom's right nostril & GOT STUCK! Of course I'm past due for a nail trim & my nails are extra long & very sharp! I was struggling to get my toes free & mom was howling in pain! Thinking it was a game, I quit struggling & started squealing! Mom gently grabbed my foot & turned her head & my toes came out!
My poor mom was gushing blood! She grabbed paper towels to try to control the bleeding, got me to step up onto her cane, squirted my foot, put me in my cage, & took off for the emergency room! To make matters worse, they couldn't help laughing when mom told them how the injury occurred! That was a story that they NEVER heard before! Mom spent 3 hrs at the emergency room & had to have her nostril cauterized! Mom is fine, but her nose is very sore! I don't think that I'll be getting belly kisses anytime soon!
I hope u had a wonderful day!

Hi Mango,
I had a very nice sunbath today at 9:00! Yep, it was warm enough that early to get some nice rays on the feathers. In fact, Mom had to move to the shade after 20 minutes, but then she is a wimp.
I suffered today when she spent extra time at the gym. And then she insisted on taking a shower before coming in to be with me. I have offered repeatedly to let her bathe in my water dish like I do, but she insists she won't fit. Guess she just needs to lose more weight.

DAY 18 ~ THANKS FOR THE VOTE!
DANIA'S LIFE part 10
When I brought Angel and Luigi home, I wasn't allowed to take them out of my cage. In the next few days I started to bring them out myself. It was fun hanging out with them because I taught them the bobbing head signal. Basically I bob my head in front of the cage and if they bob their heads, that means they want to come out. Also when Angel and Luigi were sitting on top of their cage, they would fly from their cage to all the way to the end of the room and turn and fly back to the cage. It was a lot of fun and I would start running and joining them too. Then Angel wanted to start breeding so I studied about breeding lovebirds and got the breeding box, the lovebird baby food formula and syringes. Angel and luigi tried breeding 5 times, the first 3, they laid eggs and then broke them and one of the eggs didn't hatch. Then I was learning on the way about staying away from the box and checking once a week. The next two times I did stay away from the box, and one bird hatched out. Unfortunatly Angel didn't take care of it properly and it died. Then the next time, 2 birds hatched out and both died since Angel didn't take care of them properly again. I realized that Angel wanted to keep breeding but I couldnt provide the box anymore because I had other things to do too. So I decided to sell Angel to someone who has another boy lovebird so Angel would continue to breed. I found a woman who owned a lovebird that was plucking his feathers. Before, she had the boy and the girl lovebird that were coupled. She and her husband got them from an auction. The wifebird had fractures and damaged body. I knew that the original owner didn't have patience with the female as they do bite to defend their territory. So after she got them, the wifebird died shortly leaving the husbird alone plucking. I was glad to give Angel to a good home where she would make the husbird happy and she would be living in with another couple, Bonny and Clyde. I was happy that Angel was with Sunny. To be continued....Come visit me, DJ LUIGI-Vote for me BOTM!!!!!!! & Calypso- THANKS FOR BOTD! Happy Mother's day!.

Heya, Mango!
Oh, I see how you can get what you want! That is so awesome!!! I was inside today, but out of my house even when Mom went to visit her friends for a couple hours. That was pretty cool. I have the entire playgym, and my tote bags hanging off the pantry door, and the ropes leading to the top of the pantry door. It was pretty awesome! I loved it. Mom came home looking really red cuz we had lots of sun. She says she forgot to put on her sun screen today. I don't understand why she would wear screens, but hey, whatever, huh? I think we are finally getting nice outside...70's. That is very nice! Was supposed to be rainy, but it sure wasn't! Guess we got some bad stuff coming our way...big rains and storms.

Hi Mango
How are u sweetie? Nothing much happened here today, except mom stayed home all day! We had a beautiful day of 78! I spent a lot of time outside today, but didn't get to drive my car, coz I don't really like to be out in the direct sun! Mom swears that I can smell when rain is coming, coz when it got real cloudy & looked like it would rain, I started freaking out & wouldn't let her take me off the porch! I ran up her arm & scrambled onto her back & told her NOOOOO, I hold on to mom's shirt, pant, & gently flap my wings, while on her back...mom calls it my rain dance I wouldn't get off her back & onto her hand until she went back inside! Mom calls Mom told me it was not raining, but I wasn't taking her word about it! I DO NOT like OUTSIDE shower baths!
I hope u had a great day sweetie!

Hi Mango
How are u sweetie? Mom must REALLY be guilt-ridden! She's still falling all over herself to take care of my every desire! She held me & played with me until she had to leave for her Drs appt, then got me out of my cage as soon as she returned! Tho, mom was very weepy when she got back. The vet's office had called her, her precious Chloe's ashes were back, mom stopped there to pick her up. Chloe's urn is a beautiful decorator jar. Now mom has her precious Chloe back home forever!
I knew exactly how I would cheer my mom up! First, I gave her some big beakie kisses, told her LOVE U, then proceeded to tell her all about my game! MOM, WE WON OUR 1ST GAME! IT WAS REALLY CLOSE THO! THE GREYS PLAYED THEIR HEARTS OUT, & THEY ARE GOOD FRIENDS, SO AS HAPPY AS I WAS FOR US, I WAS SAD FOR THEM! Mom smiled & gave me a cuddle & some kisses, & said she was very proud of me! Not for winning, but for being a good sport & thinking of my friends' feelings!
The school across the street was having their annual carnival, so mom took me over so I could gawk at all the kids & say HI! I was a regular birdie ambassador! I was on my best behavior! I kept saying HI, did my tricks, let a bunch of kids pet me & gave out a couple kisses to a couple brave souls, but mostly to mom! Mom bought a couple pieces of pizza, so I lost interest in the crowd of people & focused on the food! Mom stuck me on her shoulder so she could carry our pizza, coz mom needs her cane to walk! I was sooooo focused on the food that I was begging on the way back to our house! I'm not sure about u little guys, but when we macaws beg, we drop our heads, flatten our bodies & "gently" flap our wings! The entire walk back, I kept saying MMMMMM in her ear, & each flap I bopped her on the same ear! When we got back into our house, she couldn't hear out of her left ear for a little while! Hehehe, but I had a great time! YES, it's another great day to be me! & yes, the pizza was delicious!
I hope u had a great day too!

Hi Mango
Check your signature line. Ha ha! You spelled Phoenix wrong, but I bet it was just a typo. I know my talons don't always work the keys right. Anyway you can see all of our team members on our very own team page #257219. Our first game is this coming Monday. I am very eggcited as well.
Mom will see if our library has those books.
It was a beautiful day here today. After Mom got home from the gym, we went outside for my sunbath. Even though it was pretty breezy, it was just perfect. Not too hot, and the breeze was warm.
Then we came inside and Mom and I shared lunch. It was one of her lo cal frozen lunches, but that's OK. It had corn, rice and a few black beans (I got them all), and what could be better than that?

Hi Mango
How are u sweetie? Actually, it wasn't too bad being stuck in my cage, still covered & in the dark til 2:30 yesterday. Before bedtime Tuesday night, mom hung in my cage, the last one of Uncle Chuck's world-famous toys! The one that had my name spelled out...TIAMARIA! Mom is going to post a pic of what's left of my toy in my gallery! I worked it over good! So at least I had something fun to do during my unscheduled confinement period! Thanks again sweet Uncle Chuck, my toys were awesome & I thoroughly enjoyed them!
I am thoroughly enjoying mom's guilt trip! She can't do enough for me today! She's waiting on me beak & foot...even more than usual & doing & playing everything that I want to do! She even said I was having sketties & mandarin oranges for dinner! The few hours of solitary confinement was definitely worth it...considering the VIP treatment I'm receiving today! Plus, SHE hasn't left MY side all day! It was an EXCELLENT day to be me! Can't wait til the NEXT time mom screws up! Hehehe!
We've been having lovely weather here...84 yesterday, 80 today, mid 70s-80 for the next week! 40% chance of thunder BOOMS Wednesday, & 50% Thursday!
Hope u had a great day sweetie!

Hi Mango
How are u sweetie? Mom is in the doghouse today because of a SERIOUS infraction! Mom had a sleepover at sissy's house last night, coz she watched her granddaughter coz sissy had to take mom's youngest grandson to Children's Hospital for an appt...poor little guy, he is 6 years old & has Celiac's Disease! Mom was going to bring Livi home with her to uncover me, but sis called & said she was almost home, to just wait then she would take Livi to preschool & mom could head home. WELLLL, she threw a fit coz she wanted her Grammy to take her to school! Of course mom caved & took her to school, but now mom didn't have time to run home to uncover me & make it back to sissy's to go & watch oldest grandson's 3rd grade program. WELLLLL, mom didn't get home til 2:30pm! Mom was upset & was afraid that I'd be very angry with her! As soon as she uncovered me, I said HI MOM, immediately gave her kisses, then looked her in the eye & called her a SILLY BIRD! I LOVE guilt trips! Parronts are such suckers when it comes to guilt trips! Hehehe! I will be firmly planted on mom's arm til I DECIDE I want to go to bed! I won't let her out of my sight tomorrow either...THEN maybe I'll let her off the hook! It's actually a lot of fun watching her type with one hand & me on the other, trying in eat the phone as she's typing! Hehehe...I LOVE paybacks!
It is VERY humid during spring & summer here in PA! The higher the temps, the more severe & violent the thunderstorms! When I first came to live with mom 16 yrs ago, I was frightened & apprehensive of many things...especially thunder! If there was loud thunder during the night, I would scream, fall out of my bed (I sleep in a large
acrylic ring) & flap around wildly, often breaking feathers! Mom started making up games for things that I was afraid of! Since I was sooooo afraid of thunder, she would make wild arm gestures, laugh, squeal, & say BOOM! In no time at all, I began to look forward to things that had previously terrified me! So now when it thunders, I laugh, squeal & say BOOM...& the louder the thunder, the more fun I have!
Hope u had a great day sweetie!
Love & a vote

DAY 13 ~ THANKS FOR THE VOTE!
DANIA’S LIFE part 5
When I was around 3 years old, my dad decided to go visit his family, his sisters in Lebanon. So he took me and my grandma but my mother and brother stayed behind because dad couldn’t afford more flight tickets. He wanted his sisters to meet me since I was the oldest child, and his sisters were very excited to see me, my dad and their mother; my grandma. In addition, the oldest sister out of the two, had 2 daughters, both older than me, one was 4 and the other was 7. The other sister, wasn’t married but was a hardworking teacher at a school. And so, we boarded the plane to Lebanon, and I fell asleep on the way there. When we got there, we rented a room in the same apartment as my aunts and cousins. I had fun going out with my cousins and aunts, and it was the first time meeting them. One time when we were going up the elevator to our rooms, I wanted to get chips which were in our apartment at the ground level. So when my aunts and cousins got out, I stayed in the elevator without them knowing. I pushed a random button, and the elevator went down. Then the doors opened and right in front of me was the place where they were selling chips. I got out and grabbed a bag, the casher looked at me and wondered where my family was. Out of nowhere, my dad popped right behind me and grabbed my hand and bought the chips. We headed up the elevator to our rooms. Turns out, my aunts and cousins went to our room to see dad and my dad asked: “Where’s Dania?” My aunts realized I wasn’t with them and my dad panicked. They explained that the last time they saw me was on the elevator with them. My dad rushed to the elevator to search for me, he headed for the ground level. After our vacation in Lebanon, my dad and my grandma were happy to be reunited with their family. To be continued…..Come visit me, DJ LUIGI-Vote for me BOTM!!!!!!! & Calypso- THANKS FOR BOTD! Happy Mother's day!.

I want to wish a belated Happy Mother's Day to ur sweet mom...that also goes for all the dads that are both mom & dad to their precious kids...be they human, furry, feathery, scaly! I hope everyone/everybirdie had a great day! Mom had such a nice time at sissy's house & spent the whole day with her 3 grandkids, tho I wasn't too happy she didn't get home til 8pm, which is my bedtime! WELLLLL, I demanded MY time with mom, so I refused to get off of her & wouldn't let her put me to bed until 10:30pm! Mom was just too tired after that to get my blogging done, only managed to get out my BOTD, BOTM & 10K blogs/votes! I fixed mom today tho! I only let her out of the house a couple times to take Sadie the wiener dog out, even then I was waiting for her at the door! The entire day I followed her everywhere she went, & made her hold me most of the day, & I sure gave mom lots & lots of kisses! I think she could use some beak stick!
The Milonga was sooooo much fun! I commend Chyna & EVERYBIRDIE ELSE that made the Derby & the Milonga such a huge success! Congrats to the Derby winners & all participants & the hat contest winners & participants! We all have wonderful homes & parronts, so each & everyone of us are winners! & a very big & sincere congrats to Kiddo & Sweetpepper on their 4th wedding anniversary!

Hi Mango
Sorry to be late getting back to you, but you accidentally left your blog on the BOTM Calendar page, and I just now read it. In the eggcitement of the milonga I never even checked that page.
It was hotter than Hades here today! Mom decided it was too warm even at 9:30, so I got no sunbath today. I would rather not go outside when it is too warm for Mom. It hit 102 around 12:30 today, and it is still 96 out there at 4PM. Thank goodness it is supposed to drop down to mid 80s tomorrow. I will get a morning sunbath for sure. Mom promised.
Other than the heat wave, nothing new going on around here. Oh, I did get banana with my breakfast this morning. That's always nice.

DAY 11 ~ THANKS FOR THE VOTE!
DANIA’S LIFE part 3
In the beginning, I had friends at school who were mostly guys, I really wasn’t the type who played with girls since I had more of an interest of imagining and playing pretend. Eventually in grade 2, most of the guy friends I had left me because of new student who came to our school. He was more of an immature boy, and the guys liked him, and that boy was a bully too. He was in my class, always rude and making others laugh because of his immaturity to get the teacher mad. Unfortunately, I was always discouraged to participate in class activities. He always wanted to start problems with me when I participated. When I went to make friends with the girls, they told me, why don’t you go play with your other boy friends? Well I couldn’t, plus I felt they didn’t like me either. I grew up and more independent and finally after grade 6, the teachers decide to separate me and that boy and put us in separate classes for grade 7. Since new kids were coming from other schools for grade 7, I thought I had an opportunity to make new friends. But sadly, even though I hung out with them, they started disliking me because rumors were being spread about me. Well I still walked around that soccer field but I didn’t let these things bring me down, I had to focus and continue on. My mother who always was mad and sad for when I was discouraged and had no friends and same with my father and grandma, they told me that they always talked to the principle everyday to resolve these problems while I was in school. I never knew that to be honest, and I was glad they put their efforts into dealing with the teachers. In my last year of grade 8 at the end of our school year, those boys who left me, came and told me they regretted what they did and that they wish they hadn’t been so mean to me. I was so touched and happy and they told me that they were going to miss me. We hug and had our moments of crying. When highschool came, mother prayed to god that I would make new friends, and I did, hamdilah. I was so happy and they were true friends. I loved them so much and we cared for each other. These were the best friends I had and thanks to them, I had the best birthday ever this year. To be continued…….Come visit me, DJ LUIGI-Vote for me BOTM!!!!!!! & Calypso- THANKS FOR BOTD!

DAY 10 ~ THANKS FOR THE VOTE!
DANIA’S LIFE part 2
After I was born, me and my parents stayed at our apartment for 4 months. My parents finally bought a home in a new neighbourhood that was under construction. Furthermore, me, my parents, my grandparents who also lived in the apartment moved to our new home and a new neighbourhood. My aunt was already married and stayed at the apartment with her husband. So I was one of the first kids in the neighbourhood. The street was still dirt but then later on it was covered with cement. Moreover, we had the first tree planted in front of our house; it was a pine tree, around my age. At first that cute little tree that looked like a bush grew as I was growing too. My brother came along, a year younger than me, it was only the two of us. When I was 6, my brother’s new friends from kindergarden lived on the same street as us. It was a surprise and every single day we would beg our parents or even tell one another to call us so our parents would let us play outside. That is how we became childhood friends, and I even noticed by the time I was 9, I was taller than the average students and so was my tree! It grew taller than my house, it sure had a growth spurt! Sadly at school, I really didn’t have any true friends except the ones I always played with after school who lived on our street. It was the same thing everyday, walking around the soccer field at recess with nothing but my wild imagination.

Hi Mango
Green is a very good looking bird, isn't he? Those IRNs are pretty flashy, but still he doesn't hold a candle to you, my friend. They don't get any better looking than you.
Mom got home from the gym (after 3 hours! Geesh!) and it was too warm for me to go outside. Unfortunately it wasn't warm enough when she left in the morning. However she did share her lunch with me, and it was Indian stuff with kidney beans which I have decided I like after all.
Then we read for a while, but Mom knew she had to type up my blogs, so here I am dictating while she does what Dad refers to as Thunder Thumbs. She says he is just jealous because she actually types, and he does a hunt and peck. I don't know...I have never seen him do any pecking.
