    Talking Feathers

    So Alliee LOVES it when I rub her incoming feathers to get the wax off of it. She practically falls over and could sleep while rub on her new feathers. I took some pictures of it this morning!

    I was able to get one of her right when she dozed off a bit


    Does anybody else's birds like to do that???
    Yours Truely, Emily

    She's cute! Luna loves to be pet too. He closes his eyes and rests his head on my hand for balance. Talia is learning to like petting on her head. So far she only likes to be pet down her back and have her crest "preened."

    Yep my sunny loved it too. Must feel like heaven by the looks on their dear little faces, like they are in ecstacy!

    Re: Feathers

    Bunji loves it too, though she doesn't have any pin feathers currently. When I am reclining on the sofa she rests on my upper chest, up by my cheek/chin and I "preen" her until she falls asleep. Gives me the warm fuzzies...

    Re: Feathers

    If my Truus would preen my hair, I'd be happy. But she thinks she needs to preen the wrinkles on my neck and it hurts! LOL Then, when I take my hair down to cover my neck, she fusses at me!
