hi, well, im erin, and this is jakari
Jak is two years old now, he just got his real black ring and his collar. he's a most beautiful, big boy, with the greatest personality he enjoys singing, playing with my hair, talking to his friends the magpies and lorekeets, and eating. he also enjoys swimming, but only in his water dish...i catch him at it every now and then in the mornings, but when i put a bigger bowl in there so he could have more fun and not make his drinking water all yucky he didnt touch it. right now he's sitting on my shoulder, before he was singing coz i have music on...and he loves music. now he's quieted down and is nearly asleep i think.
a few months ago, we got him a new cage. one day i went out to see him and bring him in to play, and he wasnt there...he'd chewed a hole through and was somewhere in a tree. after a few hours searcing the streets we found him in a tree, he'd flown up but wouldnt fly down. not even for me. he's never been a big flyer, he never seemed to master the art of landing...so i climbed up the tree as high as i could, talking to him and whistling, he slowly found his way down, when he stood on a twig and it broke, which spooked him and he flew off...me, having never seen him fly before, i was amazed...he was so stunning to watch when he flew. i kinda just stood there, calling him, coz he was close to the ground and i thought he'd land...and i didnt know if i should chase after him incase he flew further. anyway, it got dark, so he spent the night in the wild. in the morning i got up at dawn to look for him, mum and dad had lost hope...after about an hour of searching and calling and whistling and waking up everyone, i heard a really quiet call of his, usually he's REALLY loud in the mornings, but this morning he wasnt...i found him in a tree 5 streets away from my house. again, i had to climb coz it was a bloody tall tree. i was sooooo darn happy to get him back!!! my little rogue birdie....haha.. but he's my boy and he loves me...i made the mistake of spending too much time with him as a baby boy, and now he only loves me, and tolerates dad. he wont stay on anyone else, and if i leave the room he calls after me, pines away till i come back...its a bit worrying actually
anyway, thats my baby!!
