I'm not sure any bird can be cuter than a content canary fluffing out his feathers in the sun after a bath.![]() He knows he looks good. ![]() ![]() Ms. Gray Java is much less photogenic. Although she didn't run and hide the moment the camera appeared like Ms. White Java. I'm calling them both females until I have any reason to think otherwise because they're pretty much silent and asexual.

That last picture is so awesome! She is kind of narcisistic isn't she? The two pictures in the middle have an error in the code so they are not showing up. |

I guess that is the very last picture I will have of the Java. Both birds slipped out of their cage through a loose corner earlier today and flew away outdoors. I haven't seen them since and their return is really unlikely at this point. Last I saw, one was headed out low across the neighborhood into some dense trees and the other rocketed out at least 2 blocks away, right over the highway and out towards the beach. I'm really going to miss them and feel pretty horrible now. |

Oh... I'm so sorry about the loss of Java.... Poor little birds.... Hope someone can catch and take care of them because I seriously doubt that they can survive in the wild. And Steve is so cute! |

They were being mobbed by house sparrows. I'm pretty sure both are dead or dying by now with that stress and no food or water. I feel kind of sick. I should have checked the cage better before going inside. |

thats awful I hope they are alright don't blame yourself, that never helps anyone you didn't know, so its not like it was anything you could have changed I managed to find a conure (of all things) at my feeder one day, so its not unheard of that they could make it and it gets seriously cold here but the thing came back again and again for nearly a year so keep up hoping, put out the kind of feed they normally get, and keep an eye out in case they manage to wander back home |

Once my blackbirds escaped, but one returned in my garden and we got her again. So hopefully you'll see them again. |

In the last month: A new pair of Javas, a male AND a female named Max and Luna, have come to the collection, sung, mated, and begun nesting ( or at least nest-building). ![]() Steve has fallen in love with a wild sparrow hen, singing and courting her, which visits everyday. ![]() I still have all of my adult society finches - Flurry (not pictured), Errol, Albert, Aurora, Lyra, Apollo, and Lizzie. ![]() ![]() The society finches also have six young chicks again - Rain, Waffles, Cirrus, Nimbus, Sylvan, and Simba, biologically belonging to the pairs of Albert and Aurora and Flurry and Errol but cared for collectively by everyone. ![]() And the above picture is already old and now they look like this. Here's Sylvan. ![]() I'm probably going to keep them all. |

Is amazing how this family of birds keeps growing. The chiks are really cute, you sure should keep them all. Steve & the wild sparrow story is almost a Sheakesperean romance

OMG! Those cute birds come again! ![]() And poor Steve! He should know that is the forbidden love! D: Still, I wonder if Canary and House Sparrow are that close in appearance and voice... |

I wonder what would happen if the wild sparrow decided she likes Steve? Could she be a potential new bird for your collection?

Steve no longer cares much about his wild lady, I am afraid, for as a result of a neighborhood man selling some of his birds due to declining health, he is now the proud fiance to a beautiful 2 year old purebred American Singer canary named Kari, and from the moment they met they've really hit it off.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The birds have taken a strange liking to running on the floor like mice, a trick the clever Steve so nicely taught to everyone, so I've begun feeding them there (easier to vacuum the seed hulls). ![]() ![]() The society youngsters have grown like tapeworms from bald things in a nest to actual birds which can fly, ![]() ![]() Fly really, really high (that is them in the upper corner!) ![]() but they've stayed quite tame so far. ![]() ![]() Adorably so. ![]() Really, really adorably so. ![]() |
