I know it has been a while. I got a new camera for Christmas but he doesn't like it (Laughing out loud). He can tell the difference my old camera he flies on all the time and I can't get a picture but the new one he flies away. So I put him on the old camera and got pics with the new camera .

 

It will be a year in March since Pretty died and Merlin has been an amazing tranformation. I can truly talk about what it is like to have 1 budgie, then 2 and then back to 1 budgie. Merlin now talks (like Pretty did when he was a sole budgie), he is very friendly, loves to flirt with me and loves to sit on my head and sing. He takes over the keyboard many times.

 

Hope you enjoy. Oh and excuse the fuzzy head look he is just finishing up a terrible molt. I was so worried about him because he got very cranky, quiet and wasn't himself but he ended being okay. He is getting his poof back. The pictures are a little dark because I wanted to capture his violet coloring vs washing it out with the flash.

He is such a beautiful boy and I loved hearing about his little ways. He looks like he is related to my Big Vinnie.
