Taco the Talking Tucker

So long no post. I've been sick and having some blog privacy issue, so changed my address. Brandon and I are fostering this guy:


Well, not exactly that guy, but one just like him. No camera yet people. I'm still working on things....just bear with this blog until after Christmas and I'm banking it will get more interesting....

Back to the bird.....We rescued him from a bird shelter because he doesn't get along with other birds. He's 12 years old and his name was Tucker, but I thought that was lame, so I call him Taco. He is a Mexican and it still kinda sounds like Tucker. So far no bad habits, we are slowly gaining his trust. He has been pretty quiet and recluse and doesn't like coming out of his cage so far. We are hoping that changes soon, but are patient. He is magnificent and I know his heart is made of pure gold.

So far these are the things he says
"Hi" in a very sweet low voice
"goodnight" used at appropriate times
"What-ever" not sarcastic-more aloof
"Goodbye Tucker"
"Obama" Just kidding, we're working on that one!


As for us, we are just testing this whole deal out. Either way we got him out of a bad situation. These birds live for 60 YEARS! That's like signing up to have a baby with a 2 year old brain capacity for 50 YEARS, he could out live me! I hope it works, but we'll see. I'll keep you posted.
