Birdie (BFA), Cloud (Lovebird)
If you've read my 'inactive' topic in the offtopic forum, you'd know that i had to
give up my CAG early this year. i won't get into details, but i was heartbroken.
a while after that, i thought it was time to get a new bird that would meet the
'requirements' of my family and then i came across one of my favorite types;
a blue fronted amazon. i've always thought i'd end up with one eventually after
moving out on my own, but this one came to me early. i ended up getting a
chick, about 3 months old, which was quiet and nervous for the most part, but
opened up to me within a week and wouldn't leave me alone from then on. ^^

He's a major chatterbox now. won't keep quiet all day, and is always happy.
whenever he hears anyone (especially me) for the first time in the day, he
would go crazy with his vocabulary to lure us in. he still talks in baby giberish
most of the time, but can say a few words. his favorite (also my favorite) is
the arabic word for "honey" or "sweetheart," which sounds almost the same as
"hello," which he only uses when he sees me. <33 and yes of course, he says
"hello." a lot, haha.

anyway, sorry for talking a lot. ;p here are a few photos and video captures
that i have on my computer. i haven't been able to take much higher quality
photos but i'll be posting more soon of course when i do so. and i'd be happy
to answer any questions you got about his personality. ;)

Oh! and as for his name; i spent a long time trying to name him, so my
friends and i just referred to him as "birdie" whenever we talked about him,
then it hit me. it's a perfect name for him, and as a bonus.... my girlfriend
sounds super cute saying it, and he seems to like hearing her say it, haha.

I'm so sorry you were unable to keep your CAG :(


Birdie is beautiful! I love the photos you took! Especially the first one. That's great that he is doing well with you and your family.
 
I just read your "inactive" thread and I'm so sorry you had to give up klaus and foxy :( I can't imagine the heartbreak and frustration you're going through.

I'm glad you found a new companion though! Hopefully Birdie will win the hearts of all the homosapiens :) he's so gorgeous!!

I recently lost my Tucuman zon to a heart attack or something, and we were looking at either a BFA or rb2. We went with a baby rb2 who is just the sweetest thing!

Welcome back btw!
 
I am so glad you got another birdie to love and that the family is accepting of it. Birdie is beautiful ! I am so happy and excited for you ! Thanks so much for the photos, it appears birdie and you and the GF are all happy now .

does seem to like talking back to my mom a lot, lol.

thank you, but my gf and i aren't really happy atm. going through a really
rough patch.
 
AAAAWWWW, Birdie is SO gorgeous! Beautiful BF you got there!! Aren't Amazons spectacular at cheering you up? They are SUCH clowns and love being the center of attention.

I'm so glad you let the "cat out of the box" and filled us in on your new family member. :D
 
Birdie is very cute! Its wonderful to be with another bird again isn't it. ;)
 
Birdie sure is a huge help at cheering me up, and he's only 10 months old now. i wonder
what he'll be like in a few years. ^^

and Wendy.. i miiiight have another surprise tomorrow too. ;p
 
What surprise is that?????
 
well i think it's better if i actually tell you when i get the surprise and take a couple
of shots to post as well. ;p

here's a recent photo of Birdie from instagram. notice the increase of blue on his
head! can't wait for it to increase even more.

i'll try to link videos that i have on instagram too, if possible.

EDIT: Ok so i can't post up a video player but here are links to mp4 videos
of him from almost 2 weeks ago.

Getting some scratches.

Random babbling in his favorite spot, before bedtime!

Enjoying a morning shower.
