They won't preen themselves if they feel threatened so H must be settling in well! |

He certainly likes to keep himself looking good!! He says he has to just in case Peepers comes to visit, he can't be a scruff if he has visitors!!! |

They always preen themselves everyday (especially if you hold them etc!)! |

He's getting better at sitting on my finger but not at the stroking stage yet!! |

You have to hold him initially until he trusts you and realises he won't be harmed!
H looks like the Termatiel in those two photos! (Red eye) |

He is such a sweetie!!!!
Yeah, H likes his red eye - and that's with red eye reduction set on my camera!! Think what he'd be like with just a flash!!! Trouble is I have to draw the curtains at the mo as he flies into the window ( )hopefully as he gets used to the room I won't have to so I'll get some better 'non red eye' pics!!! |

He will get used to the house soon, watch mirrors too! Peeper learnt early about mirrors |

Yep, the mirror gets covered too!!! There was a lovely print on it when he decided to fly into it just as the cover fell off - perfect outline of him ( ) |

It's to be hoped so lol!
He also likes perching in ny pot plants - shame he's too heavy for the flower stems and just breaks them off - good job I loves him and don't really mind |

Get some branches from outside and put them in a vase - that's what Peeper sits on! |

I'm gonna steal some from Mum's apple tree - still think he'll prefer the curtain rail, he seems to have grown quite fond of it! I think it's the perfect height for him to dive bomb my pooch! |

Yep, he likes being nosey! Then he tramples down the curtains a bit to make a nice cosy place to fall asleep! |

No, where he's perched in the 2 pics - he stamps the fabric down to make a nice cosy 'hollow' to snuggle in! |
