I came home this evening and couldn't find Harpic anywhere in the lounge. Then I heard a scratching sound very faint and only for a short time then it stopped for a few seconds. Finally found Harpic in this Vase and when I picked it up to get her out she wouldn't come out. She was chirping away and everytime I tried putting my finger in she would nip the end of my finger and squalk. Only way she would come out is laying the vase sideways on the floor for a few minutes - little head popped out and out she came. I laughed so much when I first saw her in there.

Very cute  Maybe she is going in to breeding condition and seeing Vase as a nesting place. |

I think she is coming into condition BB, I am going to put the nest box in the cage in the next few days because she is getting rather interested in Percy who she is paired with This is percy:  Uploaded with ImageShack.usHe was a bit of a porker and he couldn't fly very well when I first tried him out of the cage but he is very placid and contented with Harpic. He has been allowed out of the cage everyday since I had him and is now a great flyer and has lost a few grams - he's getting difficult to get back in the cage when it's bedtime now - but he gets this from Harpic hehe |

oh they are, all fun and very wonderful birds. Harpic is a terror at times though, she gets over excited on my shoulder then decides to nip my ear lobes. i gave up trying to stop her because she just goes to the other shoulder and bites the other ear - she's lovely though so I have to forgive her |

But grew out of it after about 12 months ;D, but before that we reached an agreement of sorts in which she knew she was going to be hunted if she nipped!  |
