Hi! My name is Cu-Bird Thanks you for BOTD 10/25/12
I am a Timneh African Grey from Newton, NJ.
 Cute Bird, Crouton, Junior, Mini Me and Brat Bird for now. My full name is Cuchulain, a mythical Irish warrior. Mom thinks Cu Bird is short for "Cute Bird"-can't argue that!
 10 years old  M
 Timneh African Grey
Papaya, turkey breast, watermelon, pizza crust.
 Anyone's shoulder, I'm a social climber and on that T stand!
 I hate to be left out of all the fun! My frother Blue--gets real nosey and comes over on my cage.
 I get to go all over the place with mom. I also get to sit on Aunt Jeanne's shoulder when she visits.
 I would rather escape from my cage and hang out on the T stand. I now have mastered the art of getting on the bottom of my cage and chasing the mop when mom does the floor..
 "I'm NOT Miranda!" "And, I'm definitely NOT a Paterson grey pigeon!".

Hi Cu-Bird
HAHA, change your name, and you'll be the third Gizmo we know: there's Gizmo in the Quebec flock, me, and you!
Mom had training for a new exhibit today called the Roads of Arabia, which will open in a couple of weeks, then she had errands to run. Now she's home, and we'll be doing all our blogging so we get the rest of the afternoon and evening with mom. Good luck to the Phoenix Base Flyers and the Raiders on their first game this afternoon. Hope you are having a beautiful day. Hugs, the other 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 Cu-Bird
We had a frost overnight, but mom covered all the new plants, so we were okay. This morning, she had 2 tours in the museum, one in dinosaurs, and one about animal adaptations. Then it was off to the pharmacy to pick up prescriptions, and finally here to blog.
Congrats to the Pois for winning their first game. Today the Kevlar Keets (Willie's team) and on Thursday the CJCs (Falco's team) are playing. We are anxious to see how the new teams perform, too.
Don't forget to say Happy Birthday to Uncle Chuck, we're heading over there now. 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.

Hello Cu-Bird!
It's Coach SamIAm flying by to remind all you Silver Sluggers of our game tomorrow against those mighty Quaker Little Dragons! Don't let their cute looks fool you one bit! They are tough as dragon scales and quicker than lightening! They don't call them 'dragons' just because of their breath! They will be fierce competition so let's use all that we've learned & practiced lately! Let's show them WHY we're proud to be a Silver Slugger! See you tomorrow!

Hi Cu-Bird
Hope they find the flea market a good place to unload, but not to bring more stuff home, heehee. Mom's off today, and it's raining! Maybe that means she'll stick close to home. I know she's going to a different nursery with her sister, they made plans already. It's closer than the one they visited the other day, but it also has some great stock. Mom still needs more basil (can't have enough, you know), as well as some things for the last couple of planters. She decided no annuals on the ground this year, she'll put seeds there and see what comes up. Hope you are having a pleasant day, and get lots of scritchies today!

Hi Cu-Bird
Field Station Dinosaurs? That sounds intriguing, mom would probably love it. Today mom did 3 cultures tours with 2 sixth grade groups, both of which had a pretty good handle on Egypt. She likes doing this age group, because they know a little more and aren't yet teens who have to prove their indifference. It's late, though, so we're gonna be short.

Hi Cubird & Miranda 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 - Quaker Little Dragons Left Fielder, 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 Cu-Bird
Well, mom did 2 adult tours this morning, and loved it. Today is another beaut of a day, and she will try to get us out for some sun. She is going to have Vietnamese dinner tonight, with her friends who are cooking. (Maybe we'll get some treats from dinner) They invited her to eat with them tonight and, of course, she said yes! We will be buying flowers and veggies soon, so that means we'll be getting out a little more. Hope you are able to enjoy a gorgeous spring day where you are!

Hi Cu-Bird
Well, it's a beautiful day in the burgh, and here I sit at the computer, leaving messages for my friends. It will be brief today, though, because we real birds deserve a chance to go outside. Mom only had one tour this morning, so she was able to get her nails done and get a little shopping in before coming home. Mom will try to get a few things planted today, too. We hope you are having a great day, and that your weather is as beautiful as ours is.

Hi Cu-Bird
I'm not on your team, I play for the Pois, believe it or not! You have to check with your coach Sam to find out about practice. It's a good thing I was already on a team, because my best friend Sam is coach of one grey team, and my girlfriend Chloe is coaching the other grey team! I would have had to choose, which I would hate to do! Mom had 2 tours with second grade this morning, yikes! It was like herding cats, which I know you've heard before, but these little ones were worse than any group mom has ever had! They had the attention span of gnats, and were buzzing about like them too. Maybe she's just working too much.
Last night, all the dinner guests loved the lasagna and meat assortment, and ate all the salad, too! One of them brought a Vietnamese desert, with durian, lychee, red beans, jackfruit, and some other stuff in coconut milk. It was a great ending to a terrific meal. We weren't allowed out while they ate, though. Hope you are having a good day, it's gorgeous here, sunny and warm!

Hey Cu-Dude! What A Fantastic Job You've Been....
....doing at practice! I thank you for that! Just wanted to let you know your hard work has already been noticed & noted! I thought we'd slip another practice in tomorrow. That's Friday, May 3rd.
I'm going to also be having a BBQ Sunday for all the teams. It will be a nice way to be ALL friends before we buckle down & get all serious in playing baseball. The whirlpool will also be opened for use for anybirdy and also, it might just be a lot of fun to play a game of ball that's just "play". There's swings out there, too, near the BBQ area. Hopefully, it will help remind ourselves this is for "fun" and that we're all friends with each other.
The Scruffy Birds will be there, of course, because that's where they all live!! So, there will be music & dancin' if any birds want to do that instead of a game of baseball! Hahaha!
See you tomorrow! Coach SamIAmCome visit me, The Silver Sluggers & Sam says. LET'S PLAY BAZBOL!!!.

Hi Cu-Bird
Not much new here, mom is doing a lasagna dinner for Nghi's family tonight, so we're keeping this short. She already made the braciole(seasoned, rolled steaks) and sausage, and the little meatballs are done and ready to go. So, just the sauce, noodles, and assembly/baking are left. She has to clean the house before they come too, you know: feathers, fur, food on every surface! Tomorrow is tour day, so we'll see you tomorrow afternoon. Hope your day is fantastic!

Hi Cu-Bird
Ha, late room service is not allowed here, no sir! We all wake mom early every day!
Just a quick hello today, as it's after 5 and mom is just getting in. She trained this morning, then took her car to the dealer for an inspection. That inspection trip lasted over 3 1/2 hours, and she's pretty upset right now. It's a newish car, less than 5000 miles, should have taken, at her estimation, about an hour and a half for an oil change, inspection, and tire rotation. Anyway, we need our attention, so this note is brief. Tomorrow, we may do better. Hope you are having a great day.

PaRtY at the Stark's Place!!
Is it too early for PIZZA? Absolutely not!
Your birdsitter, she won't mind if I toss all the toys on the floor to add to the racket of this party, will she? I can pick some of them up again, but I never do a good job of getting them all. Some I roll under the cages so they're good and hard to get to.
Crank up the tunes! Let's DANCE! ( I don't dance but I sure like to watch others doing it.)

Hi Cu-Bird
Hope the folks aren't gone long! Please excuse the c/p today, as we are hearing thunder and want to get done quickly. Mom posted her new nails on Falco's page, she thinks the bees with humanoid faces is vaguely disturbing, but she loves the nails, heehee.
The squirrels stay at the center until they are 14 to 16 weeks old, as that is how long they would stay with mom in the wild. Their diet changes to a wild one as soon as their teeth are fully erupted, so they can get used to what they will find outside.
Mom got to clean the silver foxes and the RVS room again today, with the fox kits, a raccoon, a ground hog, and the bats. She likes what she does at the center, it's fulfilling work. We hope she can stay there, at least for awhile. Nothing much new here, it's a gloomy, cool day with rain predicted. Hope you're having a good day with lots of sun.

Hi Cu-Bird
Sounds like Boomer lucked out and got a good flock/family. It also sounds like your mom did some good shopping for all of you, and that's always good news. I love your team pic. The whole Silver Sluggers team has great pics!
Congratulations to Chyna on achieving 10k votes so fast! Way to go, girlfriend!
I hope they are successful saving that sparrow.
The squirrels mom returned to the center on Saturday have already been upgraded in their diet to step 2! That means a little more chunky food, but still lots of milk. They are in a bigger cage, too. That's the main reason mom returned them, they needed the light and larger enclosure.
Mom trained a new person today. She always likes training new people. Mom did the red tailed hawk's cage, because she just wanted the girl to observe, but the trainee did the education hawk's cage. Big news: Martha, our Great horned owl, is fostering an owlet! She helps out nearly every summer, and makes a terrific mom. It's sunny but still cool here, hope you are having a good spring day.

Hi Cu-Bird
Well the combination of sunshine, spring, and cold weather brought flocks of humans to the museum yesterday, so mom was busy the whole time. She likes that better than just sitting. The baby's birthday party was cute, too. Today mom is doing behind the scenes tours for Earth Day at the museum. She is hoping to be assigned to birds or dinosaurs, but will do anything. I have to be brief, as she needs to leave soon. Hope you are having a warmer day with as much sun as we're having.

Hey Cu-Bird! Coach SamIAm Letting You Know....
...that practice will be blogged on the Team's page and we'll be "pretending" to be at Kevlar Stadium. The only time we blog on the Team's page is for PRACTICES. or questions or comments you may have concerning baseball. When we play the game, go to Kevlar Field for blogging about the game and seeing the game get posted.
Do you understand? Practices blogged on the Team page BUT we're pretending we're at the official stadium. The Commish says this is acceptable. I hope you have a lovely evening!
Pictures are now posted on the Team's page and a nice one has been sent to your Mom's email.

Hello CuBird! I Have Some BaseBall Info To Pass..
....on to you. I'm just coming by to let you know, I've been trying to post the Practice Schedule for next week but the crazy BC won't let me put it in the "How we met" section. So, it is "PRACTICE", I thought it was fitting for it to be put under "quirky habits" section. If you go to the Team Page, you'll see it to the right. It's only every other day and I'm giving the weekends off since many birds & parronts do their cleaning and errands on those weekend days. Under each day you will find what we're suppose to practice for the day. All you have to do is go to the Team Page and practice like we're at Kevlar Field. ONLY for practice do we do that. You don't have to be there with all the other team mates at the same time. For some birds that is impossible, so just blog a little bit or two about practice and you're good to go.
Hope your weekend is wonderful & time with parronts extra special. See ya at practice Monday! Coach SamIAmCome visit me, The Silver Sluggers & Sam says. LET'S PLAY BAZBOL!!!.

Hi Cu-Bird
Are you on Sam's or Chloe's team? I can't be on either one, because I play for the Pois! They are both special to me, Chloe is my girl and Sam is my BBFF! I couldn't possibly choose between them.
Mom is working a mammal cart today at the museum, and later going to a birthday party for a tiny neighbor. She turns one today. Mom is going to buy her something from the museum gift shop, so she knows the gift won't be duplicated. We are returning the baby squirrels to the center today, too, since all are eating and the little girl who was doing poorly has gained 8 grams in the past 3 days. She's recovered, we think. The birthday party is over early, so we should get lots of mom time this evening. We hope you are getting lots of attention today, as well as some good weather. It's cold here again.

R.S.V.P. ME!!
This event sounds like one that can't be missed! LOL about Miranda tossing the green pellets. I've got a bunch of plain Harrison's pellets I'd more than happily whip across the room. I like the pepper and palm oil pellets but those plain ones are, well, just plain boring.
This beak was made for shredding so pencil me in on that competition.

Go SILVER SLUGGERS!!
Is this cool or what; our team page winning the BOTD Trophy. The season is definitely off to a greyt start!
How's things with you, CuBird? Having a grand time keeping that flock on their toes? I hear the parronts are set to be away for a couple of days and that part... well, maybe I shouldn't say anything about those plans just in case your mom happens to read your mail. I wouldn't want to be the one to let the cat out of the bag about the party you and your flock are going to throw. Write me down as bringing three large cheese pizzas and a root beer and vanilla ice cream for floats. Party on!
Have a good one, C-Bird

Hey Cu-Bird! Coach SamIAm Letting You Know....
........We have a logo and our own Team Page now and it's #255813. As soon as pictures start to happen, I will be putting our mugs up in the gallery. I'm hoping to put our game schedules up, post the games that we play on here, and also any information to rally our team around & stir the fires. We must remember, also, that we're playing our friends and good sportsbirdship is NOT a sign of weakness nor submission.
Looking forward to playing some baseball! Let's start our morning runs to build up some endurance! See everybirdy at the track! Coach SamIAmCome visit me, The Silver Sluggers & Sam says. LET'S PLAY BAZBOL!!!.

Hi Cu-Bird
Okay, we'll look for the turtle pic, then. You'll love this, the squirrels have conspired with us to keep mom's hands bruised and battered! Her nips from Falco and Giz are feeling much better, but squirrel babies have very sharp nails, and mom has thin skin, so she has a ton of puncture wounds between her thumb and index fingers on both hands, with more on her left hand, since that's where she holds the little ones to feed them. She is going to get a whole box of gloves when she goes back to the center! She has used the ones she has, but they're punctured all over now, so they're not much use. Well, not much to report, so I won't bore you. Hope tomorrow is more exciting! I also hope you are having a great day, it's cloudy but warming up here.

Hi Cu-Bird
We'll look forward to the wildlife pics. Last night was lots of fun, but again we didn't get to talk to everybirdie. If we missed you, we all apologize. Mom has 2 tours today in Dinosaurs, and needs to pick up more supplies for the baby squirrels, so we have to be brief today. She said don't expect pics of these 3, they came here with bushy tails and eyes open, so she hopes to have them back at the center by Wednesday at the latest, eating and not taking formula from a syringe. She won't photograph them because it may stress them too much, being that they can see and are active little ones, beginning to be wild babies. Hope you have a good day, it looks sunny but cool here.

Hi Cu-Bird
Our daffs, some hyacinths, and the forsythia are all blooming! Mom was working outside yesterday and learned a valuable lesson: rosebushes bite! She came into the house with bleeding legs and arms, and some thorns in her flesh. She's okay, but probably will buy longer garden gloves for the roses, and wear heavier jeans.
Today at the center, her trainee was there, ready and eager. That's always a good sign when they come back, right? The fox kits are doing well considering they no longer have their mom. The center does pretty successful work with foxes, though, so they should be released in about 4 months. That's about how long they stay with their parents outside. Hope you are having a wonderful 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 Cu-Bird
Wow, it's our second beautiful, warm, spring day today. The daffodils, jonquils, and some hyacinths are in bloom, with more popping up all the time. When mom left for the center yesterday, she noticed lots of daffs, and when she got back, some hyacinths had opened up, too. She is cleaning out the garden beds, and there's lots of things popping up: peonies, buddleia, tiarella, day lilies, irises, and lots more. Soon, we may be able to post pics of our garden flowers! Mom is blogging for us now, but will be back outside soon. Hope you are having a great day, too.

Hi Cu-Bird
HAHAHA, sounds like the flock had a ball!
The first 5 pics in my gallery today are from the spring flower show at Phipps Conservatory. There are more pics on Falco's and Willie's pages, too. Mom got the phone to computer thing figured out, it was easy.
Today mom trained a new guy at the center, and it was kind of funny because he thought today was the only training he would need. They actually do 4 sessions with new folks, then they decide if the new ones can volunteer. Anyway, he scheduled Wed. with mom too, so she must have done okay.
Baby season has officially started! There were baby raccoons today, more bunnies, squirrels, and a kind of sad thing. Some guy brought in a litter of fox kits after he shot the mother! He didn't realize she was defending her babies, and thought she might be dangerous, so he killed her, then found the babies. Some days, mom likes animals a whole lot more than she does people! Hope you are having a warm day, we are! Mom might get to some of the garden beds today, Yay!

Hi Cu-Bird
The new pic on Falco's page is another tuktuk, which the 5 travelers piled into when they finished shopping in Bangkok. They had all their packages, too, and giggled all the way back to the hotel. Mom is going to the spring flower show today at Phipps conservatory, so we might have pics to share soon. If there is nothing spectacular there, though, we won't. Mom will be taking pics with her new phone, so she may have to learn how to get them from the phone to the computer. Hope you have a great day!

Hi Cu-Bird
We'd love to see your mom with a snake! Well, mom saw the first baby bunnies at the center yesterday! There are a couple of litters, so it looks like baby season has officially started. The avian nursery is all torn up right now because they are installing a bathroom for the volunteers. It will be welcome, as they have to walk on ice in the winter to find one. (It's in another building on the property.) Mom is hoping no baby birds get there before they finish the construction. She did some cages from the nursery yesterday, but they were in the small flight aviary. There are a couple of cedar waxwings who have overwintered at the center, a finch, and some pigeons all in separate cages in there. The little house finch got out, but mom was able to net it and replace it in the cage. Today for the first time, it's supposed to get into the 50s, and they're guessing mid 60s by Sunday. We really hope the weather guessers are right this time, we're so ready for spring! Hope you are having a bright, sunshiney day!
