Zuri

Petey

He really likes going for dark and narrow spaces, more so than any of the other birds.

Happy Hatchday Zuri!

The curious Zuri turns 9 today.

Happy Hatchday Zuri!

These wings must look their best!

Wings are the go-to item for both Meyer's if they feel like preening while I take pictures.

Preening birds

Zuri preening his wing, and Shade preening her foot in the back.

I want to get down

So what do I do? Take a picture, then help him, because it appears he forgot he was a bird and could fly off the thing.

Zuri

He knows how to pose.

Oddball

The toy, not Zuri. I quite like this picture.

Petey

Looking mildly excited.

Petey interrupted

He was on his way to do something, but noticed the camera...

What?

What does this do?

Throwback Thursday

It has been a busy week, so I haven't really had a chance to post, which means there are two
Throwback Thursday posts in a row.

This one features a picture of Zuri with his wings up in the air, taken in April 2014.

Mutual preening

It's been a while since I last posted pictures of a preening session between Shade and Zuri, in which Shade more often gets preened and poor Zuri gets little of the same attention in return. As you'll see below, Zuri starts preening Shade, does it for some time before he stops and presents his head for some preening. Shade will normally resist a little, give in for a few seconds and then lower her head for more, and Zuri will typically start preening her again.
