Sylvester







Welcome to the family Sylvester! Jack has wanted a bird for a very long time. When he was three, I got one (a cockatoo) for my birthday..Long sad story and a different life time ago.

Jack has read bird postings on the internet and books on how to take care of a bird. It was at the top of his Christmas list and we finally were able to pick up the little parakeet today.

For those of you who are interested, Sylvester comes from the movie "It's a mad, mad, mad world." The mom would scream "Syl VESSSS ter. " and he cries, "I'm comin' momma!"

Absolutely hilarious movie, so it will be a fun memory every time we call him by name.

And the newspaper covering the bottom of the cage is the sports section and he already pooped on a Steeler! Part of the family already.
