Welcome Shauna, Richard, and (very soon) Kiki!

She's a cutie--looking forward to hearing more about her, and seeing more photos, too!

Once again, welcome!
:)

PS In the interests of fair warning, be advised that if you post that you're going to put up some photos for us, and then don't follow through promptly, all I can say is keep your doors and windows shut, and don't answer the doorbell. Eliza and Henry get a little annoyed if they don't see photos that have been promised to them, and will take matters into their own hands. Um...wings, I mean. Anyway, we almost lost Dan that way after he brought Tango home, and I'd hate to see that happen again to one of our new members.
:D

I'm soooo jealous- caiques are one of my dream birds. She's beautiful :)

And I will second what Derek said- not only will you have the wrath of a couple of angry caiques, but some very sad members! *puppy dog eyes*:p

P.S... how is Caique pronounced? Like... cake? or kee-kee? D:

Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone! Now that I know how to post pictures I will be sure to post some every time we get to see her! She is quite small for her age but such a brave little sweetie and not afraid of anything!

Congrats on your baby and welcome to the forum.

Actually "down under" I think they pronounce it more like cake, at least that's what I was told.;)

Don't let Eliza and Henry scare you... But don't open anything from Fedex until you post more pictures. ;-)

Okay.. I might have to find a video where somebody says it hehe.
I've been saying "cake" this whole time. :eek:

LOL! I will never own a caique simply to avoid ever having to pronounce the name of the species. I feel awkward saying it.

Now I know there is something wrong with me because I had absolutely ZERO problems reading Eliza's and Henry's entry. :54: :32: :52:
