Talking Hello From Brisbane Australia :)

A big G'Day from Down Under in Brisbane Australia.

I am owded by 2 Eclectus Parrots!
Poncho my Male 7 year old Snuggle Bum !
And Pepper my 2.5 Month Girl :) Though we really call her Chicken as she acts just like one !!!! She scratches with her feet like a chook and walks about with her bum in the air :) Definate chicken!

I'm a Self Taught Wildlife Artist in Australia and Enjoy creating comical cartoon paintings of Parrots and Birds of all types, and of course Pets, Wildlife Of Australia, African Wildlife and more !


I am animal mad and have owned many many parrots and birds from a young age. I have always enjoyed their personalities and I also collected reptiles for a while too. Though my ekkies certainly take up all my time and are enough for now.... :P

Feel free to check out my paintings and tell me what you think :P

Have a great day!

:) Matches hehe. I love bizarre bird names :) It took a while to find one for my ekky hen, it was originally Tabasco, but I didnt want it to be tabby for short. Then I chose Pepper. But ! I call her chicky as she is quite young and goofy with walking about like a chook, she is even responding to that as her name now... so I dont know haha.. maybe she will have 2 names... :P

Umm, about 2 days ago lol. It would be cool if i could train mine like that. My tiel pretty much has no hope in learning..he's way too old now but maybe the Alex can....my tiel is 17.

I love how they live for many years :) I think ALex's live longer than tiels. Ekkys are about 50 years ! yeeehaaa ! I will be in my 70's when ponchos an old man heh
