Hello ppls,
It has been quite some time since I have posted, but one of my birds just totally cracked me up laughing this morning...
All of my budgerigars live in an outside aviary, except 1.
Some of you will remember Kazumi....
My dog loving...
food stealing...
attention loving...
bath hogging...
multilingual indoor buddie budgie! (he speaks 3 languages... budgerigarese, english and Malaysian )
Around a week ago I was setting up a couple of pairs out the back when it occured to me that Kazumi just might make a very good Dad.... He is 2 years and 2 weeks old after all! So I found him a pretty, although somewhat bossy, little hen and started the getting to know you process. Kazumi has always been a people person. Right from when he was born he loved being held and scratched and doted upon, which is why he came indoors with me when he left the nest.
After a slow introduction and a week of stand off ,I attached a nest box to the cage they are in 2 days ago, and I think Kazumi is getting the idea.
Bright and early this morning he decided he would try to chat her up... IN ENGLISH!!!!
He has hardly spoken a word since her arrival and now he's giving her his best lines....
"Pretty boy Kazumi, good boy"; "I love Mummy"; "Hello Beautiful"; "Selamat Datang, ke Rumah Saya"; "What a clever boy"; "Have a nice Day"; it goes on and on with just about his whole vocabulary...
The hen's reaction.....
[What the..??]
I just laughed and laughed.... very funny....
poor Kazumi, not the reaction he was hoping for
