Yesterday evening just before budgie bedtime it looked like some of the budgies were having a meeting. But on closer inspection I could see that George was singing to Pete and Custard while they listened intently.
I’m not sure why they found it so fascinating. Perhaps they were trying to learn the tune?
Here are all of the other boys, photos were taken yesterday morning.
They’re such little posers, especially Blithe (he’s the white one – double factor spangle)
They’ll be having baths over the next couple of days as it’s going to be pretty warm here.
Lucy has been with us for 3 months now. She was approximately 6 months old when she joined us. She had a white cere, but now it’s turned brown, meaning that she’s becoming an adult.
She’s struck up a very good friendship with George and I even saw her preen him a couple of days ago. This will be lovely for George because he has not been preened by another budgie since his best friend Snowy died in March 2014.
I managed to get photos of George feeding Lucy and I’ll show one of her when she had not long arrived and had a white cere.
It’s been two months since Pete and Polly joined us.
They have made some great progress in that time. Both Pete and Polly have been into Billybob’s cage to explore. Polly seemed to enjoy sitting with Lucy. Pete especially liked playing with the mirrors and looking at his pretty little face.
Pete also does a funny thing. He walks backwards when he’s showing off to Polly on the roof of their cage.
They have both tried eating the herb basil, also they like red millet. Polly likes to bite balsa wood blocks, so I’ve ordered some more as they do not last long!
I walked into the living room having had my shower, only to notice these two little wet budgies looking rather pleased with themselves.
Polly and Pete had a dunk in their water trough.
They’re now busy preening and drying themselves off.
Polly has taken to having a bath in her water trough.
She had another one this morning and I managed to get a photo.
Hi guys I am Blithe, I used to be the naughty boy of the gang, but these days I am a lot better and I have friends.
Welcome to our home.
