A group of budgies is foraging in the gym. I just watched as Gurgeh was hassling squeak, chasing her around the Gym and the Herb Jungle. Boba was getting irritated by this and eventually plucked a small feather off of Gurgeh (who is now minding his business and not hassling anyone). Girl power, I guess!
(I examined the feather in question, it was ready to drop by the looks of things.)

Chocobo is trying some sage. Sainsburys had sage pots available so I thought I'd give the birbs a change/treat. My big yellow ball of sunshine seems quite keen!

Indie is vocally protesting Pippin being in a separate cage, but if they were all in together then Indie would just bother Pippin. Maybe I should put just Indie in with Pippin and observe his confusion over being away from Gwen and Yuki.

This is diffent - Rito is singing to his reflection in the bell in the cage, while Dexter and Aster are chatting on top of the curtains. It's a first for this arrangement of budgies.

Ira - Indie probably wouldn't mind being in with Pippin if he gets the good food. Did you try it?

I didn't, no. He'd probably plaster himself to the bars trying to get back to the others.

Half in a cage relaxing, the other half running about causing merry mayhem. Barney feeding Iris :-)

Some busy budgies at thr moment. They all went sleepy earlier. I'd taken my eye off the ball and let the lounge get pretty dark, so they all went to bed. It took them a while to wake up again after I'd switched on the lights. As for Chocobo, there isn't much left of the sage plant!

I've just watched Whistle feeding Mhoram! Things are moving rapidly now.
Eeyore, Herman, Hector, Finarfin & Finrod are perched on the standard lamp and Chocobo is not happy as it's close to the bookcase where she spends the night.
... sure enough, as soon as Eeyore & Herman flew away, she sent the other budgies packing.

Well, Finarfin is currently on a right nutty one, chasing away any males he sees within a metre and half of Gurgeh. Poor Prothall is getting the brunt but Mr Hibs & Loric have had a taste of it, too.
Every morning is a new adventure. (It's probably my fault as I've actually had to put the light on this morning - the Sun has forgotten to come up.)
STOP PRESS: Boba is now flirting with Gurgeh so that's the end of that so far as Finarfin is concerned!

Was trying to get a photo of Peter and George, but Max photo-bombed, and looked annoyed about it too! Got one eventually!

Bobby is chatting and bobbing to a handsome chap in the mirror on the play gym, while Louie is having a quick fly round after having some brunch.

Rito is chewing the iodine block, Aster is eating spinach and Dexter is singing on top of the cage

Sounds peaceful, Criswell!

loz Yep! It's much calmer here now, thank goodness. Rito still chases Aster away from Dexter a few times a day but stops as soon as he sees the spray bottle. Dexter is now preening in the cage and Rito and Aster are undertaking a mission on the floor behind the air purifier.
