Meet Harriet and Bob.

This is Harriet. A grey winged green English Budgie. She is about 9 months old.
This is Bob. A grey winged blue English Budgie. He is about 1yr 9 months old. (My husband calls him 'Ozzy'.

This is the 'happy' couple in their new cage. I can't say my husband was happy, but I missed Harry so much and I always planned on replacing him. My friend Janice and I went to a bird show in Racine, Wis. She came home with a Amazon named Fanny Mae that is about 2 months old. She was a really sweet parrot. (a little too rich for my blood at 700 $). I think the price of English Budgies was bad enough($35 for Bob and $25 for Harriet), but it is still cheaper than some I've priced. They are from a breeder my friend knows and trusts. Birds are safer from breeders than pet shops.
They are a little shy and it takes about 3 days for them to get use to their new home. I can't say my family is as enthused as I am. But I'm happy Bob and Harriet are here! :)
