Munchie!

Got any peanuts behind that camera mum!

Munchie was my 2yr old Cockateil with 9lives!
She escaped at 6weeks old in a thunderstorm; to be found the next day in the garden soaked to the skin where she nearly died!Then she had her beak completely crushed by another bird and lost so much blood she nearly died for a second time!
She then broke her hip and sadly died just as it was healing and was putting weight on it!

She will be sadly missed with so many wonderful memories, she was never just a Cockateil she had the personality of a parrot!
Goodbye my little one!

Fabulous shot Carole. How wonderful and so much fun to have 17 parrots and parakeets. We will always miss our one parakeet Jack. Looking forward to seeing pics of all of them!! Lloyd and Sandy

Wow. My husband is always trying to persuade me get a parrot but I'm scared stiff of them - they seem to know whos boss.... and it isn't me!

Very nice details. I didn't know they wore make-up like that!

Beautiful shot Carole. The grey background is the perfect foil or her plumage, and I like the shallow DOF.

Oh, I just love this! I had a cockateil named Queenie. She was not so lucky when she escaped outside... She is surely missed. Thanks for sharing.
