Its been a long time since i visited the birdie confessional ;D I have been looking for the perfect bird for a long time now, not been that worried about breed it was the character i was looking for. I went out to stock up on knuckles for the dog today and saw this gorgeous little budgie doing upseide down acrobats in a cage full of big british ones. He looked so out of place bouncing about and absolutely disgusted that they didnt think hanging upside down was as much fun as he did lol. We have bought him home (well actually not sure if its a him or her yet but pretty sure its a him) and he is settling into his new house nicely ;D just waiting for the camera to charge and will take some photos, but this is one from my mobile... home and still liking the upside down thing lol. He has no name yet, trying to think of one so suggestions are welcome!! ;D

oh he's gorgeous! I can certainly see where his personality shines through. I just love the bat trick they do. Boris is particularly adept at it LOL. Only names I can think of at quarter to 1 in the morning is Jack (same number of letters as July - month you bought him in) or Batman. LOL brain fuzzy . . . can't think . . .

hehe thank you, he is adorable and had us in stitches already with his antics! I have been giving the name thing some thought and so far come up with... Gili (pronounced Gillie with a g not a j) - which is a Hebrew name meaning "Joy" Asha - meaning happiness Merlyn - meaning bird Kayden - meaning friend Too much choice lol

Yay Sal !! It really was just a matter of time wasn't it ... He's lovely - how about Ozzie (playing on Aussie) to tie in with the upside-downie thing (Poor effort I know, but it's late )

Ozzie is a great name and is very apt, but its also the name of my sisters cat Out of all the names we've come up with so far Gili is the only one Mia can say without it sounding like she's swearing so it may well stick lol He's starting to worry me with the obsessive upside down thing he stays there for AGES!!! Think i have a budgie thats got a head rush fetish

or maybe a sordid tale of a bat that mated with a budgie in a tale that was wrong but they couldn't help it . . . it was love at first sight . . . #shocked#

Congrats Sal He/she's gorgeous. I was going to suggest Oz as a name too. Tiny is forever doing that upside down thing. He will stay there forever just hanging around. Funniest thing is when the others look for him he just looks all around and ignores them. Pretty birdie well done Billie
