Rosa Burke

Just thought I would introduce you to our 2 baby Rosa Burke parrots

they are now 4 weeks old
mum and dad abandoned them at 1week - not sure why

they are flying well, come to our finger and love head scratches

Please send them to me ;)

Rosa Bourke's are really quite pretty! I'm partial to the wild-type (normal) Bourke's but a mature Rosa is really beautiful. I saw a pair over the weekend when I visited Bird Paradise. Such sweet little parrots!

Hi Eliza
I dont think they would last the flight from Sydney somehow
and then homeland security would think they were terrorists
(thats if our security didnt arrest me for smuggling australian wildlife out!)
