Gizmo

Gizmo was living in a canary cage
and has twisted legs and spine.
She can still fly and lives happily
in an aviary with Byrd. He quite
often brings food to her which
they will share together.

the Hoot monster

Hootie is a Moustache parrot with
a huge attitude and an ear splitting
scream! She loves chewing through
perches, destroying toys and
causing bedlam. She loves attention
and if she thinks she's not getting
enough will soon let you know
all about it!

Polly

Crimsonwing parrot.
Polly had one wing damaged by
her parents as a baby and was
never able to fly. She was the
gentlest of birds and I miss her
every day.
RIP Pretty Polly.

which we measure the true
value of ones worth'.

Louie

Louie looking cute and angelic
where in reality he had the attitude
of a feathered pit bull. I've seen this
little guy beat up the ringnecks and
even try it on with the conures!
At feeding time, you had to be really
quick at removing your fingers
to be quicker than Louie!
RIP Louie

Oscar

Oscar is a Maroon Belly conure.
He's trying to 'kick' the plucking
habit and unlike 'naked' Olive, just
looks rather scruffy most of the
time instead of bald.
*the 'Big Move' seems to have
worked magic on Oscar and
he seems so far to have
stopped plucking.*

Byrd

I found Byrd living in a small rusty
cage on someone's veranda. He
was being fed solely on sunflower
seed. I had to buy him. He's lived
here for a number of years now
and is more than happy in an
aviary and enjoys the varied diet
that is offered here. He loves to
try new food!

Roo

Roo is a crippled Barraband. She
can fly but prefers to climb as her
twisted feet make safe landings a
bit difficult. She has now been
moved into a 'flightless' aviary,
which has been set up to help
crippled birds learn to climb
instead of fly.
*Sadly Roo died before
our move to Christchurch.
RIP Grumpy girl.*

Olive

Here's my naked Maroon Belly
conure, Olive. After trying many
'cures' we've decided that
enjoying being naked is probably
what it's all about. We've come to
an agreement.......I won't stress
about it as long as she's happy!

Olive came to me a few years
ago when she first began plucking.
She would have to be one of my
'favourites' here at Dragonflight.
Even though she is not hand tamed
she is a real sweetie. We play
dancing games and she can do
an amazing 'snake charmer'
weave!
