 yesterday me and greg gregoryb went christmas shopping ..
greg said he'd been thinking of getting me a budgie for christmas .. i said i didnt want a present that gave me more work ..
we went into a pet shop not intending to buy a budgie .
funny that this photograph was taken at home not 2 hours ago .. lol ..
he said i had to give him a name because he was my bird .. i said charlie for no reason, it just popped out .. i didnt know but that was greg's dad's middle name ..:)

hoping he's a he and not a she coz the males are the talkers .. he/she is quite young so its hard to tell the sex at this age .. altho i'm sure some experts would know .. fortunately charlie is a unisex name .. !!..:)
a couple of other photographs of him ..

The light and detail is great! And the preening pose is not cliche, though I bet it's one you see often (I have a bird, too). What a cutie :-)
