The pictures came out very nice, thanks for sharing.
Tumbler is maybe a Maroon Front Conure?
We care for one of those little gems here...
Yea BJ, you did it little one, you now have a loving forever home.
I am so very grateful...

The difference between kids and parrots is that it's funny when a parrot talks back.

THANKS everyone!!!

Angela... i do have to be more careful now since the addition of Forest.  Him and Kiwi do NOT get along... i even had to rearrange my room so that Kiwi can get to his cage and Forest cannot (since his wings have not grown in yet).  If you look closely in the close up of Kiwi you can see where Forest nipped him once near the top of his beak when Kiwi was climbing by him to come to me.  I felt horrible so now i have to be cautious how i approach the cages. 

BW... to the best of my knowledge Tumbler is a GCC.  I believe the difference is an all maroon tail on a GCC and maroon on the bottom and green on the top in the tail of a MBC.  But yes... he sure does have alot of maroon on his belly.  He is my sweetie pie.  I love them all but Tumbly holds that certain spot in my heart like nothing else has.

And yes you guys have inspired me to make pics out of them now and put them up around my house (lol Debz and LMC).  And a collage what a great idea!!!! I got a pretty nifty photo printer for my birthday so i should hoook that up and see if i can't get it to work!  :)  thanks guys!

And it does seem that BJ is settling down some.  He sure does preen alot!!!  Today when i went in to let him come out of his cage he bounced right down to the front climbed out onto the door and started chirping at me.  I do think now from his vocalizations he is prob a boy.  It was cute it was like he was calling me not to leave.  Since he seems more comfortable i've opened the blinds near his cage so he can look out today :)

Those were stunning!  Our GCC also has a lot of Maroon on his belly.  It means you are feeding him a great healthy diet! AddEmoticons04239
