A Time To Choose

Hi,

It's time to make a choice . . . for a pet bird. Consider the seven . . .



Would like to have this 'ornamental' bird. Very interesting but maintenance is costly. Got to build a swimming pool pond for it to play and laze. I can't afford.




This is another beautiful bird to rear as a pet but needs a special skill to catch it. Or do they have it on sale in the pet shop? Maybe no. If  I am not mistaken this bird is a protected animal. So look for some other.




This bird is too small to make a pet. I think it needs a gentle person to handle it. I am not. So forget it.




This is a big bird. Symbol of courage and dignity. But more of pride I think. Makes lots of sharp piercing sound. Will disturb the neighbors if I keep it.




Wonder whether this bird would be good pets. This bird is gregarious within own flock. They peck away other birds of their size but of a different look. So to keep them I think I need a few so that they don't feel lonely in the cage.




A bird that can sing quite well. A pet cum entertainer but it does not have nice colors on the body. 




This bird is beautiful. Its calls are loud and sharp. It can disturb the neighbor. Better not to keep it.

The birds pictured above do not have the criteria I am looking for. I have to go look for other species perhaps there are others living there on the trees by the seaside.

Ah . . . my frivolous thinking . . .  I have never kept any pet at all in my life . . . anyway, birds are not meant to be caged . . .



Cheers

    1. There is a empty nest on my house plant. Once there was an egg inside but was stolen don't know by who. Now the parent birds dah merajuk and never come back.
