hey all,
my name is austin and im from ohio. i have always grown up with birds. i lived with my grandma and she always had a parakeet or something around. i was always bit by them and never really cared for parakeets. she now has a cockatiel that hisses at me and lunges at me with evil intent...lol. when i was 16 i got a mitred conure named rex. he was older but i fell in love with him. he was my best bud. we ate together, took showers together and went for walks in the park together. i was absolutely devistated when he passed away a couple years ago. i got rex cremated and have his urn and picture in my living room. i wanted another bird but knew no other bird could compare to rex. finally my girlfriend got me to get another bird. his name is bubba and he is a green cheek conure. i absolutely love him. on the car ride home when he was on my shoulder i just was like wow it feels so good to have a bird on my shoulder again. i really missed it. hes a pretty kewl bird. although he will never be rex i love him still.
but yeah i live with my girlfriend, bubba our two dogs and my girlfriends growing snake collection. i am not a fan of snakes but as i am a bird man she is a snake woman so we both have compromised.
as for hobbies i enjoy the simple things in life like going down by the river and having a picnic with my gurl or going for walks at night with my gurl and our dogs. i also love to fish and hunt. i like having bonfires and sitting around them talking about life and enjoying some good beer. well thanx for readin my intro i look forward to meeting fellow bird lovers on this forum.
