Well, we’re back home from camp, and the trip turned out better than I dared hope.
Bird was so good! He rode well in the car, was reasonably quiet and unusually tolerant of the dogs (Buddy), and was even nice to BJ! He got to spend some time outdoors (inside the cage, of course) chattering with the other birds and drew blood from nobody.
Of course, he’s up to his old tricks now that we’re home (BJ’s thumb has a rather nasty slice on it), but he has certainly earned another trip. And we don’t have to worry about travel medical insurance to pay for trips to the ER with bad bird bites!


Happy to read you had a good trip - glad to read you back!
Why, thank you! It’s good to be home, even though we did have a lot of fun. The old batteries are nicely recharged, and I’m ready to start back to school.
That’s fantastic! He is really starting to enjoy living with you, especially when he gets to go camping!
