Just curious, wasn't that a short life for the bird? Or did you get it as
an adult?
I was under the impression that parrots lived to be 50+ years old.
LOVE the pictures!!
With hope and heart,

Conures do not live as long as parrots... Projected lifespan for
Nanday's in a perfect world is 25 years. :-)

JJ was an adult when we purchased her from Wal-mart (who have now quit
carrying live birds thank the gods!) so we have no idea how old she was
when we got her. I understand she was wild caught, not domestic bred.

Close to 20 years was not too bad I think.
