Fran... Thanks for all the nifty info on Stumpy. My wife went to the library
to find out more, but couldn't find a book on them. "Blossom Eater" yes
hat
sounds about right considering the length the tongue that God gave him...and
his beak to house it. I still think he looks like Q-bert. Big eyes, little
green bod, big nose... same noises.
FW> The Bronge Wing is of the Pionus species and much larger than you
FW> little guy,
Just a wild guess? Again, thanks for all the info.
Next question. A lady in my community is giving away a 12 year old Blue
ront
Amazon, named TJ. He has psittacosis and had his last treatment today. Iv
e
heard that Psittacosis is a life long disease that is contagious even though
dormant. My brother-in-law is taking the bird, if he visits me and doesn't
wash very good, is there a chance he could infect my Golden Wing.?
