Hi Mica! I am pleased to report that I haven't bitten momma in over a week! We have been trying to work on my stepping up, but I'm still not great. I REFUSE to step off or out of my cage. I will only step up when I am away from my cage. Grandpa bought the Bird Tricks training DVDs, so mommy is using those to help. I really like going outside, I will step up really nicely out there. I really like being scritched. If mom or grandma stop, I shake my chain to ask them to come back. But I am not allowing mommy to scritch me at the moment, because her nails are a very scary red and yellow color. She promised to take the color off for me today. Hugs, JesterCome visit me, Jester Bean, Angel Dudley (RIP), Hermione, Pretty Bird Paintings, Angel Weasley & Angel Jacob, Peatree & Bellatrix~Goooooo Kevlar Keets!.

Hi Mica & Mariah from the Triplet Greys As on our page, Mom told a brief story of how we came to her. Actually two of us went to homes but Chloe came back and bonded so close to Mom, she never should have been the one to go anywhere. Kaylee moved to another home, against the contract that was signed, but Mom is in touch with the new Mom who is fantastic. Now, with hatchdays, and BOTD, we have been partying since the beginning of the month. First Leroy, then BOTM, and then Chloe, and Mom said it is LittleBit's hatchday tomorrow, but I, Leroy decided to take a stand as the only guy and I asked mom to please make a list of everybirdy who came to visit us, so we can give a joint thank you or we will be so behind we will never catch up. Mom had greyt plans of baking a cake tonight, so I had news for her - she is doing it early tomorrow morning. Chloe...let's do this together, you know how. We practiced. *Thank you everybirdy for coming by our page, to wish us separate Happy Hatchdays, to congratulate us on BOTD... what LittleBit... but your hatchday is only tomorrow... but I want to say it too... oh alright... let's start again...Thank you everybirdy for coming by our page, to wish us separate happy Hatchdays, and to congratulate us for getting BOTD, AND a VERY special thank you goes out to LIZZIE - who bakes us each our own Hatchday cake, which was big enough to share with our flocks, and all those who came to see us on our special days!* Mom has something to say here now. Having Greys is special, but having Greys who are sibblings is a whole different ballgame. they think together, they plan together, and you never know what is going on in their heads, but they know what is going on in each others head all the time. They are amazing to have around.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! It is not possible!, Zak - Thank you everybirdy for BOTD! & Lee-Roial RIP - Thanks for remembering me..

Hi Mica We just visited Mariah and wanted to say hi to you too! Wow -- what beautiful coloring you have. Are you a Timneh? That tail is gorgeous. Tango and I tolerate each other and we allow each other in our cages but just not at the same time. But I (Kahlua) like to take things away from Tango. Even if it's something I don't like, if Tango has it, all of a sudden I like it! LOLCome visit me, Kahlua-VoteForMeBOTD- 05262013 & Tango.

New library aquisitions : 1. Best Friends by Samantha Glen. The story of a sanctuary for animals that was founded in the mid 1980s and built from the ground up by a group of friends. Most of the stories feature furballs, but check out their website at www.bestfriends.org. and see they do care for birds as well. 2. The library has a copy of Birds on the Couch: The Bird Shrink's Guide to Keeping Polly from going Crackers and you out of the Cuckoo's Nest by Ruth Hanessian. It's a fun lil book with lil anecdotes. Enjoyable stories of bird owners' experiences with their pets. 3. Song of the Dodo, by David Quammen, is about island biogeography and is very interesting. 4. The Reluctant Mr. Darwin, by the same author, discusses Charles Darwin's personality and why it took him so long to publish his theory. He was nearly upstaged by another scientist! 5. Beak of the Finch, talks about the work among the Galapagos finches going on today. 6. Some light reading: any Inspector Brunetti mystery by Donna Leon. She sets her stories in Venice, Italy, so the setting is great and the plots have unusual twists in them at times. 7. Best Friends by Samantha Glen. The story of a sanctuary for animals that was founded in the mid 1980s and built from the ground up by a group of friends. Most of the stories feature furballs, but check out their website at www.bestfriends.org. and see they do care for birds as well. 8. There's an author named Donna Andrews who does mysteries written kind of humorously, and all of them have bird names: The Real Macaw, Cockatiels at Seven, etc. Any of them makes a fun and quick read. 9. And Chloe would like to recommend a picture book for parrots called "Polly Wants a Poem!". It is a cute book of poetry and prose just for us parrots that our parronts can read to us and it has pictures of real birdies in it for us to look at, I know this cause my frother Simon is in the book twice and Taz is in once. It was written by Bob Morrow, he has published hundreds of poems for children but until he found himself sharing his home with Harley (CAG) who quickly converted him to parrot fan. A portion of each sale is donated to The Alex Foundation. Pictures of the book can be found on my page. Have a wonderful Monday my friends and don't forget to VOTE SNOWY ! ! ! page 150496 NOW !Come visit me, Cookie ready for bazbol !, BC Library Now Open & Fly with the angels my Sally.

Wet and windy morning Mom is not looking forward to going out in it ! I can't believe the last day of my campaign is here. This has been a most extrordinary month and I have loved every minute of it ! I have made so many new friends and reconnected with some I've been out of touch with. So I want to take today to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my quaker heart for your friendship, love and support :) And a very special thanks to Tiamarie's mom for her help ! There are so many more books to share that I look forward to an on-going dialog, and therefore watch for a big announcement tomorrow - win or lose - a new BC meeting place ! Have a wonderful day my dear friends ! love you all ! CookieCome visit me, Cookie ready for bazbol !, BC Library Now Open & Fly with the angels my Sally.

Morning Mica ! You should see the fog here today ! YIKES ! I won't be able to watch the wild birds out at the feeders cause I can't see them ! Plus it's 50 degrees - after the snow/ice event on Monday we're expecting lots of colds ! Today's book choice is all for us my friends - not for the parronts ! I have my own personal copy of this book that I like to "read" while mom is reading her books. I love to enjoy quiet reading time with mom and she loves it too. If you don't have it yet, rush right out and get your very own copy of THE PHONE BOOK ! love CookieCome visit me, Cookie ready for bazbol !, BC Library Now Open & Fly with the angels my Sally.

Morning Mica ! I can't believe my BOTM run will be ending in just a few days ! It has been so much fun - thank you for being a part of it ! Another story of a human-bird relationship - SHARING A ROBIN'S LIFE by Linda Johns is the true story of a robin named County who chose to share life with the author after being rescued as a fledgling. Although County is a free flying house bird, the author tries to give her as close to a natural life as possible. This includes nest building, foraging for food and egg laying. Marvelous ! Have a great day :) love CookieCome visit me, Cookie ready for bazbol !, BC Library Now Open & Fly with the angels my Sally.

You are very sweet for remembering to stop by and support me in my BOTM run ! Thank you so much ! Today's book was a favorite when mom was teaching 2nd grade (now she's in 4th) : One last children's picture book - TERRIFIC by Jon Agee is about Eugene Mudge, a pessimistic old curmudgeon. He wins a free trip to Bermuda and of course everything goes wrong ! He ends up shipwrecked on a deserted island with a broken winged parrot named Lenny. Lenny's help and friendship end up being the catalyst for Eugene's transformation and rescue ! Great illustrations too ! love CookieCome visit me, Cookie ready for bazbol !, BC Library Now Open & Fly with the angels my Sally.

Morning Mica ! What's up at your perch this weekend ? Several of you asked about ARNIE THE DARLING STARLING by Margarete Sigl Corbo and Diane Marie Barras. Well, here it is ! It is the true story of a grandmother who rescues a baby starling out of her garden, brings him in and raises him as her own. Arnie learns and loves and shares life with Margarete. Over 30 years later, it is still a charmer of a read ! love CookieCome visit me, Cookie ready for bazbol !, BC Library Now Open & Fly with the angels my Sally.
