Size Comparison Photo Taken 8.10.2012 - weighing in at 680 grams = 1.5 pounds

Davi will start loosing weight soon, as his wings start doing what bird wings do. Healthy young baby birds are round, chubby and cute, with fat toes and wing tips. They must burn off this baby fat in order to spread their wings and lift themselves into the air to fly (fledge). They practice by flapping their wings so hard that they scoot across the floor in a line or in circles. It won't be long now.

Seeing them scoot across the floor would be so funny! I laugh at my birds all the time - I can watch them for hours! Peeky practiced to fly by holding on to the perch and then flapping as hard as she possibly could - you could see her feet clutching at the perch as her body wanted to take off!
