Baby birdies thread ❤ And the cockatoo crew ❤

OK so great news- I was just sitting on the couch about to put net flix and baby flew onto the window cill… It did a little jump around and a little dance and it flew off… I think it was happy and excited!! Oh the relief I’m feeling now that not only is it OK, it came right back after I operated on it… I think it forgives me and that was a little thank you dance it just did :heart::heart::heart::heart:

Thank you Karen :joy::pray::hugs:

To my surprise, baby is actually back properly. After its little dance earlier , I decided to come back to hang out properly. Its still limping but its improving… We have now discovered that we love hommus!! It couldn’t get enough of it eating my left overseas from the pot :joy: the look on its face was gold, you could see the surprise on its as it smacked it beak open and closed in awe of what it was tasting. So funny to watch… Im blown away that after I had to inflict such uncomfortable on it early, it has return and so soon at that. I honestly thought it would of stayed and away…

Balance is restored. Baby arrived at 7.50am this morning :heart: it is still limping even though all the string is removed. I will keep calling around vets to see if anyone will take a look at the leg for me. It is probably infected. Its still very swollen.

breakfast is a buffet of bread bits and watermelon with a side of water :joy:

2.10pm… Baby is refusing to have a bath :joy: I’m assuming its because its still injured and just uncomfortable perhaps. It hasn’t talked or sung since its return. Baby steps. Pun intended :joy:

so yesterday baby has discovered a new way of communicating with me. So I always have the window open since baby first arrived a few months ago. Its always been free to come and go as it pleases. I tried keeping it inside this week with the window ajar so it couldn’t fly out but so there was still air and noise coming in. I did this so its leg would have time to heal inside. Kinda like a human with a broken bone. If you don’t rest its movement it wont heal… So baby enjoys being inside chilling and playing on and off most of the day. It likes to sleep here a lot during the day. But by the time the clock hits 7.30-8pm the sun begins to go down, that’s baby’s cue to fly the coop and return to nature for the night… Last night the window was closed at 8pm. Baby has never flown around the house in a flurry etc, but last night when it realised the window was closed it was trying to squeeze its tiny body through the ten centermeatre crack lol then when it realized it couldn’t leave it started doing laps back and forth flying from the window to the bike perch back and forth… When I noticed what it was doing, I asked it, do you want to leave for the night, it sneezed four times as if to say yes please :joy: I’ve noticed so many times when I’m talking to it, it swings its little head side to side listening to me like a puppy would when its listening to its owner. You know that dog head tilt side to side when its listening deeply lol!? Baby does that then it will sneeze four times… Its so cute… Also yesterday I couldn’t see it outside any where so I did my special whistle and out of no where it whooshed up and into the apartment. … So now I know it can hear my when I call it and it recognizes my whistle call :heart:

:rofl::rofl:That’s so freakin cute!! Along with the head tilt listening to you. Baby leaves when the sun going down must be like a curfew. Gotta get home before it gets in trouble. lol

Literally like we were kids in the 70s and 80s playing out in the street and when the street lights came on and your ass was not yet home, your momma would whoop your ass in trouble staying out after dark lol :joy: I can still hear the echo of my mums voice screaming aprillllllllllll at the top of her lungs when I was at the end of our cul de sac when the street lights came on, me still on my roller blades or bmx bike running amuk :joy: those were the good ol days :joy:
