New Birds

Today our dear neighbors allowed us to choose two new birds from their collection of recently born parakeets.  The cage held six fresh faces of yellow and green--they pretty much all look alike at this point though.  Every one lively and fleeing from the net, there would be no pickiness about which one we chose.  Eventually our friend finally trapped two so that we could transport them to our cage at home.

Once the new little Thompsons (can we call them that already?) were released into their big new home, the more green of the two stayed put.  Uncertainty held him in place.  The more yellow one began chirping but did move away from us as we neared the cage.  Hopefully they'll both settle in well and enjoy life in our care.  I've already spoken with the kids about how NO ONE is to open the cage unless an adult is present.  I'm hoping to actually keep these pets.  ; )

Blessings,
