I am excited to have found this forum... I have been away from birds for the last 20 yrs (choice made when I joined the Air Force:42, and with my pending retirment in 3 wks(15 July!!) I have decided to rejoin the bird world.
I found an Awesome Goffins Cockatoo, "Squiggy"!! She is 10, 1 owner prior to us, and is a Beautiful and loving girl!! She picked us straight away, when we went to meet her, and is the most cuddly bird I've ever seen!!
I will have plenty of questions to come, as I have forgotten most of what I knew in the past.
I had parakeets and finches while on Okinawa, Japan as a kid and worked with the Tucson Avian Society, and local Tucson breeders while we lived at Davis Monthan, AFB(1989-1992?) I was a young teen at the time, but had a blast learning all about various species, and going to elementary schools and nursing homes and sharing the birds and teaching the kids... It was a great time in my life... I hope to regain some of that joy now!!
