Basil pictures

Basil continues to acclimate to our house. Sometimes I forget how long this can take! He'll probably just start to feel really comfortable when he goes back home. I can't wait to see his reaction when he sees his family again!

He likes to hang out on his cage door, like our parrots:He's even comfortable enough to preen himself with us rather close to him:
I haven't gotten a picture of this, but he'll also nap on his cage door. This is very interesting to me, as I have never seen any of my other parrots sleep. If those guys know we're around, they're up and looking for action, even if they're very tired. Basil is more my style -- a napper!
