I was wondering how Frederick was doing - such a handsome boy! Can we see a picture of Lucy too, soon? She's a grown-up young lady cat by now, I imagine. : )
It's so funny, isn't it, when they say the "right thing"? Once, I was on the phone with my friend - she shut off the light switch, and I heard one say, "We're in the dark, we're in the dark!" Does he speak in your voice?
Poor, neglected Lucy. What cat could keep up with such a smart bird? Birds and cats...never a happy combination. I'm guessing Frederick could defend himself reasonably well, but it wouldn't be a pretty sight. I do hope they don't tangle! Can I warn against very large open-backed fans? I remember coming home and not being allowed to come in because our parakeet had flown into the fan. Bad news.
I love him! I missed my Monk Parrot after he died so much. It was like losing a person because he talked to me all the time. They are such a little bundle of joy!
I'm not even remotely interested in birds, but Frederick is so gorgeous. And I can't believe he can talk like that--so amazing. He's so beautiful in his shades of grey.
Hi, I have a cockatiel, Tweety. Not as smart as your African Gray. I just love watching them, see what they are saying. I go to the website About.com. They offer a lot,and they always have a Freakie Friday, and it is a bird. But once I get on the utube, watching those birds, especially Estiene.Bad spelling. I would love it, if you could send any pictures, what is he doing now, kinda thing. Thanks Maureen and Tweety.
Oh, my goodness! How wonderful is that?! I've always wanted a bird that talked to me! My mom likes to tell the story of her great aunt who had a parrot that sang "bye, bye blackbird" and answered the door with a crotchety old "COME IN!!!!" I wish I could have known that bird!
And may I just say that I think Frederick is the most wonderful name for a bird I have ever heard? Oh, I can? Thanks, I think I will. Frederick is the most wonderful name for a bird I have ever heard!
I am an evangelical Christian. I have two daughters whom I homeschool: Bella (15), and Daisy (8), and three older children: Giles (21), a college graduate, Felix (19), a college junior, and Clara (17), a college freshman. I'm 42 years old and happily married to my Dear Composer. We live in a 1920's school converted into a home, outside of town. And God is good.
Feel free to Pin my photos, but please link back to the page you found them on.
Photography
Photography is an important part of life at my house. Photos that appear here are taken by Giles, by the Composer, and by me. Giles is a real, paid photographer, and he uses a Sony Alpha. Most of the photography prior to September 2008 is his. Since then I have done most of the shooting and I use a Konica Minolta. Additionally, the Composer offers me nice shots on occasion, often from his little Canon point and shoot. I've given up trying to note who's done what. Thanks for your interest!

So happy to see Frederick again! He is so beautiful. If I ever get a bird, I would love an African Grey Parrot.
Fredrick is so handsome. I adore him as well.
What a handsome fellow he is! And I love that he calls you "Mommy"!
I really like him! He is cute!!!

He is a beauty!

Lovely! I miss my birds. Next spring I might have chickens, but they're not the same as a posh parrot.
Oh, I had forgotten about Fredrick! We haven't heard about him in awhile.
What a lovely creature...
Makes me want a bird!
Frederick is so beautiful. Wouldn't he be wonderful to paint in watercolor? Such an incredible display of God's handiwork!

He is gorgeous.Such an intelligent bird. Our family used to have a cockatoo and he would tease our cat and tip the cats food bowl upside down.Angela

He's just lovely Anna! I love that he calls you Mommy!
He actually says that! My goodness! Giles isn't the only person in your house who is grown up. :)
SO precious. Your last line made me think of Jane Austen's great writing.
He is GORGEOUS! So happy to be seeing him again. He is lovely.
