Button & Ava

[nkrbkr]

I feel like a mama with a new baby. SO many pictures. I adore Ava, & I’m so happy we decided to adopt her. I took some photos of her today. She’s such a beautiful bird. Bear with me with all the shared content the last couple of days! I figured I should probably start a continuous thread for my birds, like many of you have done.

Awesome pics so far, @nkrbkr, we certainly can't have too much cuteness on this forum! I look forward to follow Ava and Button's journeys along with you

Agree we can't have too much cuteness. Her personality is apparent.

Yay, your own thread! Ava is beautiful.

I highly recommend creating a life story thread for your parrot. Salty's is going on 10 yrs now and its so cool to go back and read it every now and then. We forget so much of the day to day stuff!

That’s a great point…kind of like a combined journal/photo album. I’ll have to peruse Salty’s. I’m sure there are lots of nuggets of wisdom to be found.

I’m not sure that Button agrees, but I’m definitely not feeling it today.

Now how do you manage to drink that without Button trying to steal the tea or chew on the tea tag? Ona is obsessed with trying to get in my tea or coffee. The tea she wants to chew the bag and the string. The coffee she just wants to drink. Stinker. I often have to make her a cup of bird tea just to get her to leave me alone for a few mins!

Button is an adorable name btw.

Thank you.

He usually doesn’t bother it too much. Just chews on the tag here and there. He’s jumped on the rim of the mug a few times and gotten a little too nosy, but not often. Bird tea is not something I’ve tried with him yet, although it’s always sounded interesting. Is there one that you recommend?

Biodiversity Bird Blends. Great teas and forage mixes. Super nutritious stuff. China Prairie has good teas too.
