They are stunning. He sent me a pair of zebras, a pair of young Silverbills and 4 Societies. One is a pearl female, a fawn male and female and a chocolate male. I tried to get pictures but the societies were fliting about, so please excuse them if they are not as clear.
JohnBoy mailed them USPS yesterday at 3 and they arrived first thing this morning. I called the post office ahead of time and told them I was expecting birds. They said they would call me as soon as they come in. I got a call early this morning, the post office is 5 minutes from the house. When I walked in I could hear them singing. The man behind the counter said they were singing from the time they got there. They sang all the way home.
The Zebras settled right in and took a bath, they are so cute. I love the look of the Silverbill, as soon as I put them in the cage the male was singing. The Pearl is a very striking in person. One of the fawn females has a white marking right on her head that looks like a white bow! The chocolate and fawn males are very good looking, the chocolate reminds me of fudge ripple ice cream. I will wait a day or so to let them settle in and try to get more pictures.
I was to be honest a little nervous about having birds sent but it was an overnight trip from La. to Fla. It could not have gone any better. I am so excited and can't wait to put them out with my other birds.
My father told me I should build a aviary on the back enclosed pool/lania. I told my husband what he said...ah a winter project!
The Pearl societies picture is one John took and sent me.
Don't you just love it when the mail man brings you something other than bills.
