Hey Joe, can I be a guest photographer for this blog? I sure do love posting pics but without comments its not quite the same.
Yay! So glad you have a dedicated blog. Your photos have inspired us to dust off the camera out here in the Mojave.
Thanks!

That is if I can use it Joe?
Any one of you are more than welcome to us any photograph I produce here. I'd be honored.
Sun Conures, Oh My, there were lots of them but I truly cannot recall just how many. I will say, they are very beautiful little birds with great personalities. However, when they get older and they get voices, WATCH OUT! Loud little suckers. LOL
Sorry I can't give you numbers crackerjack.
I don't think it's that important crackerjack. Over the 18 years of her raising animals for the Salisbury Zoo, I doubt very seriously she kept those records.
Keep in mind that the Sun Conure lives to be a good 50 years old but that may not be so at the Salisbury Zoo, as so many animals die prematurely there.
I was actually looking around for pictures this morning of some of the ones we actually raised but I'm not able to find them on the computer. If I find them I'll post them.
Also note, Blogger does not work very well during the daytime. There's much to learn here.
Well crackerjack,
As important as you may think it is, the Zoo keeps these records in particular log books housed within the main office in the Zoo. Might I strongly suggest you visit the Zoo and insist on seeing these log books and get for your own personal satisfaction an idea of just how good a job Jennifer did in all those years and get the exact numbers you're looking for?
There's no tip toeing around the answer. This is my blog site, not Jennifer's. I will kindly ask her if she recalls and report her figures back to you, if she elects to do so?
I don't know why but I could swear I divorced you once!
Crackerjack,
Here's your answer.....
"I probably raised around 15-20 over the years, possibly more. We started having problems with them when a nesting pair started chewing the feathers off the babies halfway through their growing into adults."
I'm done with you crackerjack. Go to the Zoo, get the information you're looking for and that's final. Good Luck.
