#Bluebonnet Parrot

[redrcs]

First sighting.

Bluebonnet Parrot, Fitzgerald Bay

[todaysbird]

the greater bluebonnet is a small parrot found in southeastern and central australia. they are considered a sedentary or resident species and do not migrate. they mostly remain in pairs or congregate in small groups of up to ten; while they are social, they are not as gregarious as some other parrots. they are known to be aggressive and difficult to breed by aviculturists. females are slightly duller than males, with less red on their bellies. they primarily feed on seeds, but are omnivorous and have a varied diet that also includes nectar, fruit, and insects.

Your OCs as parrots?

oooh, interesting question!! This will be fun!

Okay well for starters Ophelia is an African Grey hands-down. No contest. They're wickedly smart, but can be total nuisances or even outright dangerous when they get bored.

Rae is a dusky lory... mainly because they look SO COOL and I didn't know what other parrot to put for her. I just really like their markings, and while her markings from her mutation are silver instead of silver, the shapes and patterns reminded me of her

Robin is a blue-fronted Amazon parrot, since they're known for being excellent in mimicking speech, songs, and other sounds

Jasper is a New Zealand kākā, mainly because I think their plumage looks really neat (and pretty punk, fitting for Jasper). Either that, or a black lory for the same reasons

Kestrel is a hawk-headed parrot, also namely for their plumage. Obviously they're modeled after an American kestrel, which is definitely not a parrot, so this was the closest thing I could come up with.

Quinn is a harlequin macaw. "Harley Quinn" pun aside, they're bright and flashy, deceptively smart, and will absolutely bite your finger off if you don't treat them right. Perfect!

I've compared Madison to a Major Mitchell's cockatoo before, and I still like that comparison, but I also think the crimson rosella would be a good match for her

Indigo is an Eastern bluebonnet, based on their size and plumage. They're small birds, and when they're sitting still they look fairly nondescript. But at the right angle, or with their wings spread, they've got some really impressive colors!

And I know I've said this before, but Katherine is a sun conure

Belgian Bearded d’Uccle Chicken: March Breed of the Month

Breed: Belgian Bearded d’Uccle bantam chicken

Photo by Pam Freeman.

Class: Feather Legged

Origin: Belgium. The Belgian d’Uccle bantam was bred for the first time in the small municipality of Uccle at the southeast border of Brussels, Belgium by Michel Van Gelder, sometime between 1890 and 1900. The ‘d’ in front of d’Uccle means from or of (Uccle). Most authors believe that the Belgian d’Uccle bantam is a cross between the Dutch Booted Sabelpoot bantam and the Antwerp Bearded bantam, but this fact is not known for sure.

Standard Description: A real showstopper, the Belgian Bearded D’Uccle is often on the must-have list for poultry enthusiasts. These bantams come in a variety of colors, each one just as unique and beautiful. These are curious-looking birds with a muff of feathers around their face, a bearded throat, and feathered legs and feet.

•  Small

•  2-3 eggs per week

Temperament: Calm, friendly, broody

Hardiness: Not heat tolerant

Testimonial from a Belgian Bearded d’Uccle Chicken Owner:

“I started raising Belgian d’Uccles, a true bantam chicken breed, quite by accident. I had bought a few mixed bantam chicks at the feed store and one ended up being a Mille Fleur d’Uccle. That little guy was super personable insisting on being picked up all the time. As he got older, he enjoyed riding on my shoulder as I did chores. I’m not sure if he thought he was a parrot or maybe he thought I was a pirate, but that rooster single-handedly made me fall in love with the breed! I’ve had d’Uccles ever since, often seeking out well-known breeders for chicks to improve my lines.” – Lisa Murano
