Oh hun that is my 19 yr old Moluccan Fluffy. I do have a Goffin and a Umbrella. lol I have 14 parrots ranging from Cockatoos to Macaws to African Greys. Then some of the smaller conures, tiels, a rosella and a pocket parrot.

here is a photo of my Goffin Birdie, he is 14 yrs old. and special needs I am his 4th home and have had him since he was 6 yrs old. he came from 2 homes that abused him and he has seizures thank god he has not had one in a good while.

I think I put my Webshots link to my albums the parrots have one for each of them on there also.

Hi Becca...My name is Corry and I am from Okeechobee, Florida. I have just begun quilting about 3yrs ago and definately hooked. I have pretty much sewn all my life and made alot of my kids clothes as they were growing up. Now that I have started quilting I have little interest in making clothes...lol I also have alot of pets. A couple cocketiels, a kitty and 2 chihuahuas. Those are my indoor babies. I have several kitties outside and we have 3 horses. My next quilt I have just begun will be a horse quilt for me. I have saved fabrics with horses on them for several years and planned to make a large quilt with horses on it. I am using my embroidery machine to embroider horses on some of my blocks. I am sure it won't be the only horse quilt I will make as I think a few of my granddaughters are going to want one too...lol Well I wanted to welcome you to the group and I am sure you will enjoy it here. Also looking forward to seeing some of your quilts.

Thank you Cory for the welcome.

I do have photos of my quilts I will post the link here. lol the parrots are not our only pets.

I have a 5 month old great pyrenees/newfie mix that as a flock working dog I am training for in the house for her to make the parrots her flock to protect along with me. outside we have a chocolate lab and a part shepard/newfie mix. so we have all large dogs but hubby calls Shiloh a mini horse.

here is my webshots albums. just none of the dogs yet.

Hello and welcome from SW Iowa. Glad to have you here. I have a blue and gold macaw and an african gray. They are so much fun to have around.

Hi from another newbie. We have no pets, but we have a boobook owl in the gum tree outside. It has made quite a dent in the local possum population.
