I am new to this thread but not to birds, yet I find this site a great source of expertise. I have been reading threads on here for some time, and just recently joined up in order to post some questions of my own. (My first is in the cockatiel section regarding the possibility of a cockatiel and a Bourke parakeet keeping each other company, in case you have some advice to impart on that query.)
I currently have three cages: one with a lonely Bourke who spends most of her time visiting my other birds; another with four busy budgies; and one aviary-like cage with society finches, Gouldian finches, zebra finches, and a widowed diamond dove.
I made my sun room into a semi-aviary environment with bird-safe plants. The hookbills come and go from their cages a lot while I am home.
I really enjoy my birds: their behavior, interaction, songs, and even the squawking.
