It seems love is in the air! Breeding season looks to be just around the corner.
Main News is! I caught Tinkerbell doing her female posturing, while Henry was doing his Heart Wings
Funny thing was early today I saw both of them on the nest box Max and Roxy are using. Luck those two were in the lounge, so no conflict.
I am so happy that Tinkerbell has become comfortable enough to think about breeding.
So I am on my way to building another nest box.
Poor Roxy, those injections early in the year are still stopping her from having eggs. I feel very bad about it, as they are still into nesting and nothing is happening. Max keeps looking and still spends time in the box.
Not at night though.
Max is living up to his name. He Maxes out.There would be peace if it was not for him.
I find it funny how he will chase the others around then wants to sleep close to them at night. Except Roxy who sleeps in the nest box.
Henry is coming along fine and just needs to get up enough courage to land on me. He comes so close to making that landing. He also touches me a bit with his beak, maybe just testing or even telling me off, for what I have no idea. But it is contact.
I'll of had Henry and Tinkerbell a year at the start of September.
Roxy since February this year and Max (need to check!) around start of June.
It's been a great year and they are all (as far as I can tell) in top order.
It is good to see them fly around with so much more agility. Roxy is the only one who has to work hard at flying still.
Tink still has the edge over Max in the air, which she needs to keep him out of reach. There is no violence he just likes to push the others away.
Sorry No New Photos.
