Ben's New Parrot
« on: April 19, 2008, 09:44:58 PM »
We went to a bird fair today in Norcross.  I really was only looking for a new birdcage for my breeding finches - but Ben figured that if there was going to be an empty cage, even for a little bit, that he should fill it.

He's always been a sucker for parrots, but I am done with the big ones now that we have kids.  So - I said he could have a couple budgies or a lovebird.

So - meet Winston.  He's a black faced so far as I can tell.  Just a baby still, hand raised.  Better pics coming soon.

'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American. There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.' - Theodore Roosevelt 1907
