Sorry again for the absence, I kept having issues with my browser (firefox), but it's sorted out for now.  Charlie's learned kissy noises now and Sonny has been such a cute little munchkin for us lately. He lies on his back in my hand and clutches my finger like a baby.


Tanjiro has been feeding Charlie so much that now Charlie doesn't even touch her seed dish any more.  It's so cute how he's a great dad to her, he just adores baby birds. I remember when Sonny first joined the family, Tanjiro was such a great daddy to him, feeding him and looking after him, it's so sweet. Poor old Buster did the same for Tanjiro when we brought him home, dear old Buster was so ill but he still found the energy to look after the new baby and it was so touching.

Good to be back!

I'm sorry if I haven't updated in a while, I've been very ill again and very busy. I'm feeling better now though. Those little rascals have figured out how to get out their cages by themselves and it's caused no end of headaches for us! Sonny's getting his king feathers soon and he'll be a gorgeous boy when he does. Tanjiro lets us pat him like a kitten and Sonny lies back in my hand allowing me to support his head. He also sleeps in my arms and lets me rock him to sleep. Charlie bit my lip the other day and it wouldn't stop bleeding!

Charlie has figured out how to make cute "chook chook" noises like the clever girl she is! Now we nickname her "chook chook" or "chicky" and she's really calmed down since we first brought her home. She's a wonderful little bird and I love her very much.

I had a lovely day spending time with all the birds. I snuggled Sonny this morning, gave charlie a cuddle this evening and shared some vegetables from my pizza with Tanjiro about 3 hours ago. Charlie got a lovely pink blanky from me today and she adores it.

She is falling asleep in that photo, isn't it cute? I just need to knit another blanket and each bird will have their own blanky to snuggle in. I'm so proud of Charlie, I remember when she used to start squawking if we so much as walked past her cage. She's settled in so well now.

In other news, mum has her own deviantArt account now for photography and drawings (when I get convince her to do some).

We met the nice man who will be moving in next to us soon, his name is Peter and he'll be replacing our old fence with something nicer than the hideous grey fences we've had for the past 15 years. Peter has a nice wife called Lynne and his son says he knows my dad from when he referees soccer games at the park and has seen my dad wearing the orange vest. Peter has a cute little cat apparently, so I can't wait for them to move in so I can take photos of their furry little friend.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I haven't been feeling well. I haven't really played with my babies today as I slept until 4pm after taking painkillers for my leg. I got a new camera yesterday, and my phone fixed. I can't wait to take more pictures of my 3 little munchkins. Sonny's a beautiful little talker, he hasn't shut up all day. Tanjiro has been a great daddy to Charlie, he spent a long time with her this morning.

Today I managed to get up early enough to watch Flipper & Lopaka with the birds and Tanjiro was going absolutely berserk during the show. We watched The Mr Men Show as well. As I type this I'm playing an adorable little game called Reachin Pichin and yelling at my naughty boys to be quiet! Why can't they be nice and quiet like Charlie when mummy has to take a nap?

Well, the birds wouldn't shut up today but they're all tuckered out now and tucked up to sleep. The fat lard Tanji ripped the peg from Charlie's cage and pecked her mirror then went around to the other side and pecked the abacus so it fell down! Needless to say, Tanjiro's in the "sin bin" now, the little bugger. I didn't get to watch the cartoons and kids' shows with my babies, sadly, but hopefully if I can get up early tomorrow we can spend time together. I'm a fan of shows like Superhero Squad and Big Babies and so are the birds, they get all excited when they hear the theme music. I also love Good Game SP, Hex is awesome and very funny. I enjoy spending that time being a big kid again, eating Coco Pops and cheering on Thor and Iron Man and The Hulk.

Playing in mummy's knitting
I'm knitting a scarf for my sister's cat to wear when she goes for a walk so she doesn't get cold. I've also got to knit a special pink blanket for my baby Charlie to snuggle her in.

so this isn't even about the birds but I'm so excited, I want to share some of my art I made with a program called Xaos:


I'm not new to fractal art by any means but I really enjoy looking at fractals and creating awesome stuff with Apophysis.
