Wink My sneeky - but Alexandrine

Just a moment ago, I went to go do my hair, I left my bird Icarus on top of the couch running freely, I thought nothing of it, he'd be there when I get back as he had been there for the past hour happily.

So you know I spent 15-20 minutes on my hair, I came back to the lounge and he was missing to my horror.
I couldn't hear him talk or even his feather ruffling, my dogs were out so I knew he was alive..but where on earth is he?

I had been searching for a solid half hour and then did a panic and called my mum who recommended I check behind the couch etc, which I already did, so I went off to my room where Icarus is kept just to grab some seed to hopefully con him out of his hiding place..
And what do you know? There he was head held high on top of his cage...

The little bastard! He navigated his way from my lounge room across the dining room, down the hallway and into my room onto his cage?

Keep in mind, he's only been here just under a month and is only a baby 13 weeks old =]

Here's a picture

They like to keep us on our toes! I've lost my tiel before - she flew on top of the cabinets. It's like, you know they HAVE to be somewhere, but for the life of you you can't figure out WHERE!

Lmao, Thistle fell out of my jacket when I went up to bed one night[1:00 AM, everything was dark and i was the only one up], but I didn't know it... Took off the jacket after I went into my room upstairs to pry her out, but I couldn't find her... Checked my room, the hall, the stairs, calling her name with no answer. Then I went back downstairs to the couch[which was pitch black xP], and found her under the couch waiting for me XD
rofl, I felt soo bad.

lol! Laura, NEVER assume Icky will stay in one spot- especially while you're not there to amuse him! How's he going btw? Did you mention he's talking already?
