There were some pretty big goodbyes said in the Birdroom today. Baby, the little olive rainbow lorikeet, was picked up this morning by his new owners. I knew form how strongly he ate and how much he'd thrived, developed and grown in new feathers in just a week that there wasn't reason to keep him any longer. I'm sure the little sweetie will bring a lot of joy to his new owners.
Today I said a difficult goodbye - to Cam, the cockatoo who'd been with us over a month now. He was sold to a lovely couple who'd recently lost their bird and I hope he will behave himself for them! He's such a cheeky young fellow at times.
I will miss him dearly, though I am glad he was sold before my holidays which are coming up in a few weeks. Other staff members than me interact with the birds, but I'm the main one as they're in my care, I'm the one who gets to know them. I was worried that not seeing me for an entire two weeks would be a difficult adaption for Cam, but now he has two loving new owners to entertain with all his tricks and little ways!
Some more photos coming up in the next post!
