Meet the Flock...Tripp!

Tripp is my own personal bird, he's a male Peach Faced Lovebird!  He's my second Peach Faced lovebird, my first was Beanie and we were together for 16 years. Beanie's photo can actually be found in a lot of our advertising and packaging. So proud!
Beanie!
Tripp lived in my office with me (yes, past tense!) and a typical day for him would start with housekeeping, fresh food and water...all while he sat on my shoulder and we visited.  When he'd get bored he'd set out on his "daily adventures". 

After he left my office each morning he would "bust out" his buddy, which was another lovebird that lives in a large gazebo enclosure. As you can see Tripp and his buddy pretty much thought they owned the place!  You can see them visiting with their friend Sydney the Cockatiel and meandering around on all sorts of adventures, until...
Tripp decided he was going to take a stab at living in the Gazebo!  That's right one day he followed his buddy (now his lover!) right into the Gazebo and he was over me! :(  Ok, maybe I'm being a bit dramatic because he still comes out and visits with me but it's just not like it used to be.  I feel like a Mom who's son just decided to move in with his girlfriend and leave home for the first time.  Sorry, enough of my wallowing because honestly I've never seen Tripp happier!  Those two are always preening one another and snuggling...they are doing what lovebirds love to do and that's a good thing!  Do you have any cute stories of your crazy furry or feathered family? Please Share!
