Hello all. If any of you are active on social media, I thought it would be a good idea to let others know of good accounts to follow. Preferably budgie related! But general birdie & animal related is also nice. Plus if anyone has a blog then let us know here.
I'll kick off with a few suggestions from IG but they are probably elsewhere too, in no particular order.....
@roscoethebluebudgie @plato_the_budgie @brego_the_grey @cooperkeet @fefe_the_cutest_gofin @winnie_iris_gracie_ (chickens)
Also @theasherhouse (animal sanctuary) @1bike1world (+ 1 cat) @lizardthebuddy (fascinating reptile!) @sarperduman (Cats!)

I’m completely unsocial apart from the forum and dipped my toe into Facebook for a few months about 14 years ago, had a nose to see what people were all doing with their lives and then dried my toes and decided it most definitely wasn’t for me! 😂 Lovely idea to share good accounts though for those who do use social media.

I think that is about when I joined FB. I mostly use it to catch up with people I know but never see. I don't go out all that much.

I only really got into social media as a way to promote my Folksy shop. I find it all a bit tedious! That said, there are some really nice accounts to follow, whether they are animal-related or just funny ones like @verybritishproblems.
Yesterday, on IG, I came across: @alittlebudgietoldme an account that advocates for higher standards of pet bird care @chester_the_macaw who is free-flight trained

Another nice account is @bikecanine. Like 1bike1world, he is cycling around different countries. Started off with one dog but has two now - the older one in a trailer & the younger one up in front. I think he's Spanish. Oh, he's also linked to 1bike1world in that they both found, independently, 3 stray white dogs whilst in Georgia. bikecanine took all three on & stayed put for a few months to look after them.
