Conversation at my house this morning

Sneaking around the kitchen when my back is turned.



Jenn: What are you doing, you crazy bird?!

Marco: ...?

Jenn: Back to the cage for you!

Marco: Wanna come out!

Jenn: Nope. In you go, mister.

Marco: ......Baby....baby.....wanna come out....Baaabyy...I love you. I love you, baby.

  1. Marco is quite the handsome guy. I can see he wants to hang out with you.

    1. He is handsome! Most photos don't show it, but the area under his wings (his wingpits!) is bright red, and he has blue flight feathers, too. The red area and the blue flights don't show when his wings are folded and at rest.

  2. When I was small we had a gardener who used to give us Budgies. Like Marco they loved to fly around the house. Unfortunately we also had cats.....

    1. No good. That's why our dogs (especially George) have to live in the garage, laundry room, and the back yard. We can't risk Mr. Marco's safety!

    1. He does, indeed, talk. Quite well, when he's not being too lazy to bother. And he likes to show off when people come over. Marco is 10 pounds of personality in a 5 pound bag!

  4. Was he looking for some water at the sink? One of our old cats used to love it when we opened the tap for him just a tiny little bit so that he could drink from it.

    1. No, he wasn't looking for water. He was looking for stuff to push off the side, or cords to chew, or people food to raid. He's never up to any good when he's free range in the house like that!
