I'm not sure that when a Parrot is the topic (with Parrot Owner's that always true) if the Photo is or can be defined as a selfie! Right? :D

Great photos of the flock! Thanks!

Love all these photos of you and your beautiful flock! I don't do "selfies" either or really photos containing me in general. I like to be behind the camera:p

I too feel the occasional compulsion to get my feathery camera ham and myself together though. As I always say when Kiwi is involved- the devil made me do it:16::green::eek:

Love the pics! And nice to put a face to the name!

My favorite is the photobomb, too! Hilarity!

RB2s are galahs? Is that right? And they can breed with cockatiels?!

YUMgrinder yes, RB2=Galah. I think technically they can breed? These two would never have! The RB2 was just boarding with us, and doesn't live here now. My tiel' is a grumpy old lady, kind of a cooky great aunt - and my most apt flier. She's great with children, but hates the rest of the world and spends most of her time dive bombing the others or just handing out on the curtain rails. She's very good at teaching the younger bigger birds some manners - no one messes with a grumpy old tiel!

Yes to the first but wth to the second. Where did that come from?

well, I learned of a galah\tiel hybrid and it interested me so I know what a galah looks like but I didn't know they call them rose breasted cockatoos until I saw the pic but noticed the comment said RB2. So I thought I would inquire!

Yes no probs FYI rose-breasted cockatoo, galah cockatoo, roseate cockatoo. A bird with many names LOL.

Personally not very keen on hybrids but that just my personal opinion. Goodness only knows what a flock would make of a bright orange 'too? It would be a rare occurrence in the wild so why mess with nature? :)
