I have had birds on /off since I was about 10 or 11, some went due to age. Something got into the pigeons coup and scared them, so bad they actually never came back. I would see them periodically, but they completely lost their trust. The umbrella we had to sale. When I bought it I didn't realize how spoiled it was. It hated to stay in the cage. I worked nights at the time and couldn't sleep with all the screaming. I couldn't leave it out while I was sleeping,as it chewed everything. She went to a retired person who lived where there wasn't a problem with the screaming.

I now know to watch the breeder you buy from. The signs were there but I didn't pay attention. The umbrella couldn't be alone. I would fall asleep and she would let herself out of her cage. I would wake up spooning with a umbrella. We had to use a pad lock, which frustrated her even more. It's been like 15 years I still think of her. I just couldn't break any of the habits.
