Oh! I so envy you with your babies!

I love fountains also. I don't have any outside but try to make do with several small ones indoors. I like to think the sound of running water pours peace into your soul.

At my last house I had 2 goldfish ponds, each with a waterfall. No koi, just the fantail goldfish. They were a labor of love & you're right about the calming effect of the water.

Well good grief! I don't know how I managed to double this post! Only I could achieve such a blooper! Gonna blame it on a long day!

Your idea of camping sounds like heaven!

Didn't know you had birdies. What kind? I used to train birds (in my spare time). Mostly the larger parrots African Greys, Macaws, Yellow Headed Amazons, a * or two. Back a few decades ago having exotic birds seemed to be a status symbol and a lot of folks knew absolutely nothing about handling or caring for birds with lifespans that may exceed their owners ...shocking! I even had a large indoor-outdoor aviary built in my backyard in my gravy days. Miss my birdies.

Doesn’t it though?! Kinda glamping for sure! No chandeliers though.

Oh yeah...I have birdies. I’ve had all different animals throughout my life but parrots started when I was a young teen.

Now I have my little parrots. A Cinnamon Green Cheek Conure named Giacomo (the movie The Court Jester???) and my new baby (although she’s already a little chunk is a Caique named Hawkins (same movie).

They are my babies! And I know about the lifespans. My daughter already knows that they will be hers. She loves them and they love her.

I have a post here in the forum with a pic of Hawkins from a couple of months ago. I think it’s titled “AWHHHH” ?

I’ve had big birds. I just happened to fall in love with Giac when I saw him, he was a baby and that was 10 years ago. And I researched Caiques because I saw a video online of one. They are difficult to find. Found one in Portland and my son and I took the weekend and drove up to get her. I purchased her before she was ready to come home but at three months she was!

Hubby wants to build a sunroom type aviary onto the house so I can just take them in without them being outside for the transfer. We have a perfect section of the house where it would go. I’d put a fountain in there, benches, pathways, etc.

I love fountains. I have 7 of them. The dog oasis has one as their dog water bowl.

Thanks about my avatar...that’s MEEEEEEEE!

RS, wasn't it your daughter who has Hank, at the Home Depot-Aisle 5?

Wow, hahaaa...you remember Hank! He was on Furry Friends Friday!

He belongs to my daughter’s manager so Hank is in there all the time. I’ve played with Hank. My daughter is not ready for a bird, especially a Macaw.
She does however have four bunnies, two ferrets, three cats.

She takes after her mom!
