Well then. When lights came on this morning, and I removed blankies from cages, I 'almost' didn't recognize my Sam. :54:

He must have been looking at too many pictures of his beloved Poppy (Allee's gorgeous Cockatoo), because sure enough, he was attempting to sport his very own bonnet.



He eventually straightened himself back out...and proceeded to be my big helper as I carried on my morning cage cleaning routine.

Here he's making himself comfy on one of Niko's perches.

Wendy, Sam always looks so incredibly ... happy in the pics I;ve seen of him. They make me smile. I shyed away from DYHA when we were looking around to replace our beloved Maxie, and my Salty is fast becoming my favorite pet of all time, but maybe we shoulda interacted with a few more DYHA - your Sam is like a poster boy for happy parrots!
Good on ya and him!

Oh Sam, you gorgeous, gorgeous boy! Your bright yellow bonnet is an eyecatcher but I assure you, Poppy loves you just the way you are! She would really like to help you gnaw Niko's custom Captain's perch too! Very sweet of you to help your mom with the cleaning.

Wendy, thank you, Love me some Sam!

Hahaha! I love the look on his face in that pic! He's looking at you like, "What's the problem?"

Just to cosign on what's been said above, Sam really does look healthy and beautiful. All of your birds do, in fact. Thanks for sharing!
