This
is Mékhé, he is a twelve week old Senegal Parrot and
is the biggest clown I know! His name comes from a city in Senegal and
we pronounce it MeeKee. In the short time we have had him he has
captured our hearts and made each day brighter. I got him when he was
six weeks old and he has successfully weaned himself. The picture is the
"Please Mommy" pose he does when he wants to be held. He just learned to
make kissy noises to get my attention. He loves to cuddle and preening
his family and is quite the acrobat jumping, hanging and is not afraid
of anything but an ear of corn! (silly bird!!) He has a handicapped
sister named Mali and he is very loving and gentle to her and will share
his food with her. But he can also be very bold and will try to attack
my dog Scooter if he gets too close! He loves coming into my bed to play
and likes to burrow his head in my husband's armpit to when he is ready
for a nap! (eewww!) He also loves to "help" mommy type. He is a bundle of
joy and energy and I can't imagine my life without him!
