Welcome Home, Rebel!

[Kashta]

Here's my new baby... a blue and gold macaw.

His name is Rebel and he's 6 years old.

We just got him home about half an hour ago, so we're both getting settled now after all that excitement. Rebel is my birthday present to myself, this year.

He's in excellent health and is already very attentive. Seems he likes me already..... thank goodness!

PRETTYYY! CONGRATS! I love self-titled birthday presents. Yourself gives you waht yourself really wants!

He was a lucky find I couldn't pass up. So the birthday made for a good excuse.

Coming from a small family, we got in the habit of doing a gift exchange for all birthdays. So everybody got something every time... more like Christmas. Kinda of a quirky thing to do, but we liked it.

Thanks for the nice comments... he's a sweet fellow.

How big is he right now?

Okay,... I just checked. He measures 32 inches to the tip of his tail. Wingspan should be about 45 inches. So he's got a little more growing to do as he matures fully.
