Hey, I was looking through a picture album of mine, and I found a picture of me as a little girl with a bird we had for a while called Pretty Bird. (how original, eh? ) I can't for the life of me remember what kind it was, and it is driving me nuts! On the conure pictures board,here: www.birdcrazy.proboards2.com/index.cgi?board=conurepictures&action=display&n=1&thread=1710Ami looks just like PB, except that PB had a black beak. I looked, but it never said what kind of conure Ami was, so anybody know? Thanks!

Glad you're back and everyone is doing well Billie! Don't you love watching them flaunt, silly boys! I got my birds a bunch of toys for Christmas and they tried to sing the neighbors away for a while...
