One of my sun conures on the door into my daughter's room. I posted a couple photos recently, of a "breakthrough" I had with my african grey parrot, Cressi and my ten month old daughter, Sydney. To me it was a breakthrough, because it was a huge step in a positive direction. A step I wasn't expecting to happen so soon. My daughter loves seeing,...

My husband Dave with our 6 month old daughter Sydney, galah Bondi and grey Cressi.

We thought about going with a blue bird, like our blue throated macaw "Jinx", if we had a boy. Then our colors would be blue and yellow. And if a girl, maybe we would go with the theme of galahs -...
