Aren't they just sweet?




This baby seems to be saying, "I am the oldest! Why does she insist on treating me like an infant!" Just look at my big feet! They were made for walking! Well, at least for now! But this baby is eager to get on with the business of life and if only those feathers would grow faster, he would be all for taking off for the skies!! That is not all there is to his personality though, he loves neck rubs and just melts when I offer a good beak rub and neck scratch! The beak is also changing daily, and taking on more and more of the shape of an adult Amazon beak! The lower beak is becoming more narrow and less of a "shovel!" Now why can't they just get in their feathers all nice and evenly? Those bald patches are a little embarassing! But it won't be long!


Or is it only a face that a mother could love? Again true to personality at this stage, #1 is off exploring and #2, and #3 are behaving nicely for the camera! Notice the appearance of distinct pins on #3! He will soon be hard to tell apart from the other two! The age difference on the babies is pretty easy to tell at this point because #1 is clearly showing the other two the way! They do seem to watch one another quite a bit and tend to copy cats. This has caused some problems for #3 who can't do everything his older siblings are able to do!
