Welcome Back
Today a totally off topic post 🙂 My other passion in life is my beautiful budgies. We were a flock of five, but it was a bad year, in April poor Blue died, then in June; Sky passed away. Everyone was sad, even the boys (Minty, Harry & Tiny)were depressed for several months. After a while Tiny and Harry became best buds but left out poor Minty.
Had hoped things would settle but after a few weeks of punch ups, then they ignored Minty and all the while, he feeds the swing 😦 Well the good news is, thanks to MIL sending us to the pet shop to get peanuts for the wild birds, we now have a new edition to the feathered family. He is still un-named yet, so feel free to post some nice suggestions for names. Will get a picture of him up tomorrow, as this post is already late!
New budgie is a beautiful turquoise colour with a green tail, very lovely purple cheek patches. Still very timid but just finding his voice and gives the occasional chirp. He’s daft as a brush and keeps diving head first into the seed pot and kicking the seed around. Seed pot mining was just what Minty and Sky used to do….bless.
Freebies on Friday 😉 sorry for the late postings, internet is not too great at the moment. Have scheduled friday’s post so it goes up on time.
Best wishes and thanks for reading

Oh Billie –
I’m so excited for you, a new baby! Maybe Minty will make friends and they will all be happy. Can’t wait for you to post the photos. Congratulations.
Hugs,
Elaine
Thanks Elaine
Minty and the new bird are calling to each other from oposite sides of the room. Can’t wait till quaranteen is over and they can go in together.
