I finally have internet access with my computer, and have taken the time to take a few photos of my three year old Bronze-Winged Pionus, "Bebe". I wanted a parrot for the longest time and did a ton of research before deciding a pionus might be the best idea for a first time owner. I fell in love with the Duskies, and even was talking to a breeder before I mysteriously never heard any more. Shortly after, a craiglist ad emerged for a Bronze-Winged Pionus, being my second choice, I decided it was too coincidental to pass up. Actually, my boyfriend (the ANTI-bird person) found it ;). Her previous owners told me she was a year old in August of that year, and that she was DNAed male, and they had her for 6 months when the prior months were spent in a small cage in a pet store. I always thought she was a he until recently (two years later) she surprised me with two eggs! She is an absolute love; flies to me everywhere, gets along with the dog (tolerates my boyfriend, on especially GOOD moods may allow a scritching!), and the only noises she makes are inquisitive peeps. I could not ask for a better bird and am so glad I ended up with her!

I apologize for some of the outdoor pics having bars or bar shadows, I tried really hard to eliminate them but apart from opening the cage door its difficult! Just wanted to try and show off their colors a bit. Hope you like!!

Beautiful creature. Bronze wings are one of the least found for sale here in Canada, but quite a gorgeous species:D

​Bebe looks and sounds like a terrific bird Shannon. I've always liked seeing photos of all the Pionus because they always seem to be full of character. I've always liked Wonderb's stories about Olive and the same of Saemma's Mabel, so hopefully we'll hear much more about Bebe. :)
