Umbrella: Flower's thread

[psychocircus91]

We all have a clean bill of health and are getting along just fine.

 

[Scott]

Excellent, great news!!

 

[psychocircus91]

Flower and Loki are very expressive with each other. They dance when they get close together and they chat with each other. When Loki gets too close, however Flower gets defensive.

I love the story, the bird, the name... everything about this thread.
Thank you so much for sharing.

The story is just beginning! Thanks for reading!

Perhaps Flower is skittish of a nimble little velociraptor in her midst?

 

[psychocircus91]

Well, decided to do what makes sense for the time being.
Flower has moved into the 4x3x7 cage.

Loki is still in a temporary cage while he is being kept in the living room. When Loki is in the bird room, he will move into Flower's last cage (3x2x4), but ultimately I will have each of them in a cage like the one pictured above.

Flower must be enjoying her palace!

Flower is definitely starting to fill out a little. Her feather condition was never too bad with me, but she has gained a couple on her stomach and several on her legs.

After one week of having her:

Today (About three months in):

Sorry for the different angles.

Wow she looks great! I know I'm late to the party but "Look at Flower!" is PRECIOUS!

Congrats, she looks like she has settled in nicely to the family

Thanks! She says that whenever she wants attention. She has not been noisy in the least bit, as far as cockatoos go. She calls loudly for about 2 minutes when I dim the lights. The rest of the time, it's just "Look at Flower"

High four!!

Love that pic, save it for a future POTM contest!

Flower is so attentive!

Flower is so attentive!

She is certainly the most expressive of the bunch!

 

[WakaWaka]

Definitely POTM material.

Thanks for sharing.

Flower sure lucked out with you my friend. And like everyone else,Ilove the 'high four' pic ! Will Kalani be upset if I say Flower is my favorite of your flock?

What a beautiful bird with a really cute name.

 

[psychocircus91]

A little Flower love.
Sorry, we're molting here!

 

[smbrds]

Still a beautiful "Flower" even with molting!
