12/2025: Hi, everybirdy! My name is Sunshine, and I came to Mickaboo when my dads passed away. They loved me a lot, so the change has been hard, especially since one of them got to snuggle and pet me. Sometimes I will step up, and some days I am more brave with humans than others. My foster mom says that I am very smart, quick to learn, and so fearless around other, bigger birds that I will need to be monitored carefully. I like investigating other birds` food, toys, and cages, so that is probably why I am missing a toe. I`ve been slowly and steadily getting used to new people and surroundings, and through my sometimes-tough exterior, I am showing my softer side along with my pretty yellow feathers and blue eyes. I mostly like to do what I want on my own terms and appreciate an open cage door and my flight explorations, so if you have dogs or cats I might not fit in well unless you can keep me safe and separated. My foster mom also says that I communicate very well, with softer and happy purr and gurgle sounds and louder and more demanding angry sounds that you can learn to interpret. Also that I am clear with my body language whether I want to step. If you can listen and learn to read me, I think we will get along great for many years. I am 16 now, and it would be really nice for me to find my lifelong human friend/s who will love me for that many more years ahead.
