Hello, Mac and welcome to PT! I enjoyed reading the story of how you came to your forever home and inspired your own line of better bird toys! I don't know a lot about birds, but it sounds like your people have not only your best interests but also those of all birds at heart. How neat that you take vacations with your family--- I bet you have given lots of smiles to people you have met! I enjoyed all the pictures of your wonderful colors! Happy Pet of the Day, Mac!
