Yes, there are subtle differences between them. Plus Barney has a more cheeky nature than Blueboy. It'd be nice if he was as inquisitive as Hector and formed a bond with a human though I though he was a Hector look-alike until these photos of H with Blueboy.

Barney seems to like hanging harassing out with Dinku.

A first. He landed on the mirror behind me and started head-bobbing at himself in the mirror.

He must feel so happy and amazed that there is so much for him to do now and so many friends for him to play with.

The others were scared of him when he first arrived. They would scatter when he flew over and hovered there like a hummingbird. But now they are okay with him and treat him like any other friend.

He must feel like he has won the lottery. When I first asked my friend was she glad she had another budgie and she said no she couldn’t cope with him and was thinking of taking him to the scruffy pet shop, that’s when I told her please don’t I will see what I could do………I must admit I felt a bit like I was interfering a bit at the time …….but I am so so glad I did……Just to look what a wonderful home he has now I feel so happy for him…….It just shows that interfering is the kindest thing to do sometimes. Message to Barney….. Was your journey really necessary?? ……YES ILOVE my new home and Mummy 💙💙

Barney is in with Max tonight Also in other news. When Max came over to me earlier as I was cleaning the playgrounds, Barney landed on the table right in front of me, I was a bit shocked! He walked forward a few steps and then took off again. It gave me hope that he's getting used to me. Must try and tempt him with millet tomorrow!

Wouldn't it be nice if Barney decided he wanted to be your friend?

Lovely photos. It looks like Barney has always been part of the flock. It will be lovely if he does make friends with you. Well done Max for teaching him.
