We have a "snow day" from work today...so...

Breakfast (I added sweet potato):



Stuffed Manicotti:

Ayesha's bowl is the one without the Manicotti, instead she had a paper towel wrapped around her bowl.

I love the pictures!! I used to have 3 blue crowns and a white belly. I miss them as they all have such cool temperments. I bet they are enjoying your snow day also!!

[broadude]

They are! On non-working days they get to stay out of the cages all day.

Sorry you don't have your birds any longer? Mine certainly keep me entertained.

That looks like an awesome bird room! Tara and I have been looking at YouTube vids of bird rooms and saying we'd like to do that. Not in this house, probably, but in our next house.

It used to be my den (it's attached to my bedroom) they sort of took over and moved me out, so of course I had to get them a floor that could handle their "traffic."

They are all great looking birds but your female electus is simply gorgeous!

Beautiful birds! I want some birds so badly but I don't think it would work out with my two cats.

Beautiful birds! I want some birds so badly but I don't think it would work out with my two cats.

Some have done it "successfully" (quotation marks because their have been scares) Some have failed at it and the bird suffered/died as a result...frankly, I wouldn't want to have any dogs or cats, because in my opinion they actually do pose an "immediate" risk to birds either out of playfulness or instinct.

All I have to do is think, "what would I do if I got a cat and it hurt my birds?" I would hate to have to put down my cat for doing what came naturally..and of course I would be WRONG to do it..but that would be my reaction. So, because I love animals..I can't have a cat or dog

(I waaaaant a little peke).

Being a new birdie owner myself, after the initial "ooooh, what's THAT mom?" from my two cats, they usually just hang out on the bed while I'm in the living room with the bird. Or sleeping on the sofa, occasionally opening one eye to see what the bird is currently doing (she sticks very close to me, her favorite place when out is on my shoulder - I try to encourage her to explore, but she just climbs right back up so she can preen my hair and ears).

I am very aware of where the cats are at all times, and Diamond the dog is 10 and more interested in sleeping and has shown no interest in the bird at all.

Deb, your birds are gorgeous!
