I got two. I have a Whiteface just like this one, and a Yellowface. Had them since 1997.
Sorry about your little birdie....I'd hate to lose mine.

Very cute!
Reminds me of Gerty who we just lost a few weeks ago though... Well, at least I still have Sunny even if he is losing his feathers!
(Both of mine were/are just over 20)

I got Sunny when I was a little kid, got my mom really ma at me too because our porch wasn't screened in but I took him out on the porch-swing and set him on it to take some pictures!
I'm gonna see if I can find those, if I can I'll upload them at some point!

Trust me, Sunny used to be quite a ham! As soon as you got a camera out he started posing!
He also had certain music he liked, if you played it he would dance to it and if you played one he didn't like he would start shrieking at you to change it!

Ever try playing music for yours?
Maybe they'll decide they have certain favorites! ^_^

When I lived in SC Sunny used to perch on the curtain-rod and listen to the wild birds outside, he eventually learned to mimic them all. Do yours do anything similar?

hehe ya! however, they used to mimick/talk to canadian geese as they flew by. they do their normal chirps at other birds/whistling commercials. haha

Mine never mimicked geese! O.o
Must be noisy when they do that!
