Duncan (Australian Galah)
This is my pet bird 'Duncan'. He an Australian Galah. I got him as he was emerging from his egg so I am the only mother he knows, he was found in a nest when a tree was chopped down with 2 other half hatched babies. I reared them and believe me it wasn't all fun.
He is 14 months old and thinks he's part human part Labrador Retriever as my other pet is a Labrador. I might add the dog is scared of the bird (with good reason). One of Duncan's favorite things (apart from terrorising the dog) is to 'use' the computer and by that I mean try to take it apart! I took this photo when I surprised him about to "use' my computer.

Duncan is beautiful! I bet you guys all have a great time together.
This looks like the parrot we call Rose Breasted Cockatoo. I take it you live in Australia cause if there are trees in the US with these in them, I want your address!!
Ohmygosh Trish!
He is precious and your story about him is hilarious! I hope this will be a regular posting, the latest about Duncan!
Have you thought about writing a children's book about your adventures?
Thank you for sharing Duncan's story!

Duncan is such a pretty boy. I'm sure it was difficult raising him from a hatchling, but it looks like you did a great job. I tried to take care of an abandoned baby bird one time but he died. Glad you had better luck. He surely is pretty.
