WOW! What a great thing you have done. Poor bird. Ya know parrots are very inteligent and this sort of abuse could have long lasting effects. Lets pray that with all your love and care that this bird will come to enjoy the life that it deserves!

She sounds wonderful & I bet it was really fun watching her in the rain
Does this type of bird talk at all?

[captain]

Anna,

Yes, apparently you can teach them to talk, but they are not as proficient as the White Cockatoo - takes more time apprently.

She does whistle!!!! I am trying to teach her the "sexy" whistle, and then saying "Pretty Bird" after it. She has got the first part of the whistle, but then just peeters out ........

She has a whistle - like when you see someone you know and you try to get their attention - sound like "Hellooo" but whistling

(NOW I KNOW THAT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE ..... ) but I cannot explain any other way.

Thanks for all caring - she certainly has a better home now than she ever did. One of my friends asked if her wings were clipped - and I said No.
She then said - well, she wouldn't want to fly away anyway - she is in birdie heaven! (nice of her to say ..... )

AND - we bought a digital camera today ....... so I will get some pics of her aviary, and perhaps some of her "washin" next time.

Isn't it the best when birdies go in the rain? Its HILARIOUS watching Popcorn and Muffin bathe in the rain! They LOVE it! Whenever it rains, I take them outside. Rain is birdie heaven! Hehe!

Ps. That digital camera means plenty of Jo pics right? Can't wait!

[captain]

Yes indeed digital camera = MORE pics MORE often!!!
