  • The Birds!

    Here are some pics of my conure, Prometheus and our newest roomie, Squeakers. Squeakers is a male eclectus parrot, from Australia. He's molting right now so he looks a little rough.

    Prometheus


    Squeakers


    A friend couldn't care for Squeakers any more so she gave him to me with a monster cage. He's very tame, though a little nervous being in a strange place without his mommy.

    So far he and Prometheus get along...

    What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

            These two look great and Squeakers will be even more handsome after his molt is done!! Glad they're getting along well together for you. You have a great friend to give you a tame Electus along with the cage like that! So has your noise level increased much and what was Squeakers reaction to seeing your fish in the tanks? Really cool that they are color coordinated as well. :)

              Nice birds Mark. Two of my favorite kinds too. Too bad I don't have the proper time to spend with them else I'd have one.
