Handraised Birds everywhere!

Tis' the season for baby birds, and I've got a heap of handraised birds! Here's some pretty photos of the group. 


Closeup of Gem, the pineapple green-cheek conure!


Gem lying in my hand. 



Gem, snuggling with a red-collar lorikeet!


Awww!


Gem and a scaly lorikeet!


 Gem with his red-collar and scaly lorikeet pals!



The two scaly lorikeets who are best friends, Spring and Summer (Spring = Green, Summer = yellow). Spring has a huge crush on Summer - if you pick her up, he wails until he gets to go too! They're only being sold together because they've bonded so closely. 


I  know this one it out of focus, but I couldn't resist an actual photo of this idiotic scaly lorikeet leaping entirely off the cage! This, incidentally, is why he's called Spring, although it did also have something to do with his colour :P 



Summer lying on her side!

  


 The red-collars, scalys, alexes and Gem the conure after a bath session! 


And here's Lolly, the Princess parrot - a favourite with the whole staff, she's so very sweet!


 


This is a video of the lorikeets (Two scalys and two red-collars) plus Gem the pineapple green-cheek conure having a bath (and a quick meal in ?Gem's case!)
