Beaker's unknown vocabulary

slaneyder wrote in parrot_lovers Jun 22, 2011 23:10

Apparently blue crowns are some of the more capable talkers among the conure family, but after owning Beaker for three months, I'd never heard him say a word. He clicks, squeaks, kisses and whistles, but no actual words ( Read more... )

The fun stuff first!

Clancy went to MediaWestCon, my annual tv/movie/media fan convention, with me over Memorial Day Weekend. This was his fourth adventure to MWC, and he had lots of fun and was beautifully behaved, even when we had to go to the basement when the tornado sirens went off!

Photos under the cut!

Clancy the CAG

Went to see a some local troprock artists play tonight. The son of one of the band members met my CAG at an outdoor concert this summer and fell in love with him; tonight, he was there, so I did a drawing of Clancy for him. Oddly enough, I've never drawn Clancy before, and he came out looking rather baby-bird-ish. Still, for a piece done late at ( Read more... )

Not mine, but I saw this and had to share. You've got to love the optimism involved in getting a photo with Santa, eight cockatiels, two budgies, and one quaker.

That Santa is incredibly patient. %-)
