I'm with Michael on this question. Jessie has absolutely no interest in Lucy or Kylie and I can't trust Kylie and Lucy together ... not yet anyways. I'm still hoping given time that Lucy and Kylie can build that kind of relationship.

These two just "clicked".

However...Shade and Pixel lately have been requiring that I keep a close eye on the two of them. In the beginning Pixel was doing most of the provocation but this week Shade has decided to throw in her share. Mind you, I find all of my Pois, except for Joey who is sweeter than he's ever been, to be a bit on edge...seemingly hormone season is starting, it's been about the same time as previous years, so I think that is why Shade is acting up a bit more (it's her pattern...).

Starting Saturday I'll have two extra Pois for about three weeks, these being my mom's two. And trust me, these two are the perfect example of birds who do NOT get along (and are rather anti-social around other parrots as well).

I believe photography is a hobby of Natacha's and she has a professional camera ... when she was in town for the Canadian Parrot Conference last month she came by to meet Lucy (Joey and Pixel's sibling) and was taking pictures. I wish I had her skills and camera.
