Hello, My names Matt. I live in Western Washington. Im an Apprentice Falconer, but thats not the reason why im on this forum... Id like to know more about parrots and domestic type of birds, mainly because my girlfriend (also a falconer) has a parakeet and a budgie, and i think they are great! Ive been trying to convince my mom to let me get a pair of Parakeets or some other species, yet have no avail yet...
Anyways... pet wise... i have a dog, Beagle/JRT mix, named Rascal, who recently turned one year old, his birthday was 6/6/06... not kidding... Ive had 3 gerbils in the past, i recently had a pigeon which i trained to fly to me (that pigeon has actually gone back to my falconry Mentor, or sponsor). Ive been around many speices of birds, and have always been facinated with them, but Birds of Prey, by far have my attention.
Nice to be here!
Matt
