RB2 parents are so lucky!!!

As most of you know I'm in Utah for the rest of the week. Having grown up here, I know of an exceptional pet store called Bird World and Pet Villiage. The selection of birds and dogs here is unrivaled by any other pet store I've ever seen.

So I had to stop in to visit and see who was in. They had a Blue and Gold, a pair of U2's, a Senagal, some Meyers, Ringnecks, both Fallow and Lutino, some parrotlet mutations, cockatiels, CAG's, budgies, all manner of finches, Yellow crowned amazons, and last but not least, a beautiful Rose Breasted Cockatoo.

This little baby was such a sweetheart! I must've spent a half hour just standing next to her perch cuddling the little sweetie. I was so smitten! Between Feo coming home and the $1,800 price tag there's no chance of this little angel coming home with me. But I have a new favorite Cockatoo!

So everyone who has the privledge of claiming one of these little angels as one of their flock, please go give them a cuddle from their uncle Michael!

Michael, I too have fallen in love with these toos, and that's just from photos and stories! Rosies, or galahs, seem like great toos! Maybe someday....

yeah, if you can ge them into the country. Australia has VERY strict importation laws, as well as strict immigration laws. Would be a lovely place to live though I think.

Michael,
Go big! A pair of Hyacinth Macaws!!! Just live in New Zealand for three years and then you can bring the pair into Australia.....the last I knew that is what needs to be done.

Wouldn't that be nice. But the whole idea is that in the states I can afford a pair of B&G or GWs. Hy's? Not til I win the lottery!

No imports to New Zealand? Must have changed that one. We're going to have to find another way to get Michael to Australia with a pair of macaws after he wins the lottery.
