Leia says thank you and that she is indeed very cute :)

@javi thanks - and good luck with your new arrival!

@TikiMyn Leia is my first bird and I had no idea that birds could have such great senses of humour! Leia makes me laugh every day. She's such a funny little bird.

@Fergus Mom Thank you - I love her eyes too. I'm half your age so while I lack your experience, I hope Leia and I will be together for a good long while and learn together! Like others have said, have you thought about adoption or fostering? Maybe you could be an older bird's soft place to land, and you could be wise elders together :)

@tka ... Oh wait... I don't have much bird experience, I'm just old! Ha haaaa! But all of you who suggested the older bird rescue or fostering have SURELY given me something to think about! I have lots of dog experience including raising two guide dogs for the blind, (one passed, one washed out of program and came back to me as my pet). RIP Charlie Dog 1996 / 2010

I am indeed very lucky to share my life with such a delight! She's currently sitting on my knee playing with a toy while I type.

Here she is inspecting my cooking. I use ceramic pans and I do encourage her to stay on her window perch in the kitchen but she does like to investigate EVERYTHING

She's a creature of elegance and grace... (thanks @Deejo for making such awesome toys!)

Thought it was time for some more photos of Leia! The last photo is of her drying off after a shower - you can really see her colours.

Leia graciously accepts the compliments :D Today she very carefully shredded a wicker ball while on my knee and demanded a lot of headscratches. Is anyone else's pi moulting? Leia is moulting out her flight feathers and the poor love is so itchy.

Resurrecting an old thread to share this photo of Leia. She is absolutely furious that she only has peas, carrots and green beans to eat and that her pellet foraging toy is empty. This is an outrage and she would like to complain to the manager.
