"Hi Sara!"
haha.
I will try to keep this short and interesting...
I have had birds of many species on and off for most of my 40 years.
I am an inactive registered veterinary technician (read: stay at home Mom). I have two beautiful, busy, smart and sweet daughters, ages 6 and 4. I have a wonderful, tolerant husband of 9 years.
I have shown, and currently show and breed Pembroke Welsh Corgis on a limited basis.
My recent addiction to Tiels started with Lily, a pet WF pearl. But then...I realize the difference, the vast difference, between pet and show quality tiels. ANd that was it...I've always appreciated a well bred animal...and cockatiels are no exception.
After doing homework on the different Cockatiel clubs, I decided NCS was where I wanted to be....as most of the birds I found to have "the look" I preferred were from top NCS breeders and I quickly got used to seeing their band numbers in the birds I liked.
My first quality birds came from Peggy and Jesse Avila, and what a wonderful experience! Sandy Warren has been a great and generous mentor as well and I continue to learn from the many wonderful people I have met in this new adventure...Leslie H and I have a scary amount of things in common...and though I think her birds are awesome, birds are just one of many subjects we discuss!
Short and interesting, I seem to have forgotten about that. Sorry. Though I could go on, I'll call this good for now.
