Last November, Lydia bought a bird: Polly. She specifically only bought one bird because we read that birds will be more attached to their human if they are alone. But Polly is a nervous bird and never really formed an attachment to Lydia even though she was trying so hard.
Lydia started thinking about getting another bird - and we started making trips to PetsMart to just look at birds and think about it. She finally decided that she DID want another bird and after checking several different stores to find a bird that felt like the right bird -we ended up stopping at a random pet store in the South Jordan area on our way home from a swim party at the Middletons (we were all in our swimsuits, ha) and Lydia found the perfect green-colored bird! She decided to name her Ivy.
Lydia wishes that they would be more friendly with her and that they would let her hold them and interact with them. However, they are good friends and we are glad that Polly isn't so lonely.
Lydia is a great pet owner. She takes great care of her birds and she has learned a lot.
