...the two newest members of my ever increasing flock ;D 
The little poser boy!
Spotty faced hen who refused to let me take a decent photo of her
I went to Stafford Bird show today with the intention of looking at some crested budgies but they had all been snapped up
So I said to myself "You don't need any more budgies, 16 are quite enough!" but I saw this lovely girlie with her HUGE spots and fell in love 
;D So I reserved her and went off to spend more pennies lol. Then I saw this lovely little recessive pied, I have always wanted a recessive like him, the black stripes, white body with a touch of blue. He looked so sad and was sat in the corner but he perked up a bit when I looked closer. The breeder said he had just sold his mate so he was feeling sorry for himself. When I introduced the hen to him he went loopy, making kissy faces with her and trying to preen her ;D So he came home with me too lol. They are currently in a quarantine cage in the diningroom for the next month.
I have them calling to Holly in the living room, Holly calling to them and the budgies upstairs, and the upstairs budgies calling to Holly and the newbies. It feels like a bit of a zoo right now but its only temporary for a month then they will be moved into the aviary ;D
