Hello :)

[Marty]

My kids bought me a male tiel for my 40th birthday last week! I was so thrilled! I haven't had a bird in the house for 2 years since my dear "chi chi" died (a 15 year old budgie). It's so wonderful to hear the sounds again that fill the house. We've named him "Marty" and he's won our hearts already! :love:

Kerry.
