Birdies on their backs

ok, Miss Emma would be real popular with the boys..... she is always on her back......







but here is Stirling, the 20 something year old grey, who Wouldnt let people hold him. He learned that he likes to be held like Emma, and sang to......
He lays there and says "wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" when I sing to him.


So see anything is possible with patience.

so where are your birdies on their backs?

Poppy's more of a bat; always hanging upside down, from his cage, perch, a finger, whatever he can manage to dangle from.
