Pretty boring but I love to watch her do it.

She sure is taking care of those pinnies. When she shakes herself off, you can see the remnants falling off. I wish my birds would stay put like that.

I guess I'm spoiled, she stays wherever I put her.

She is such a cutie, do you find that she eats more cuttlefish bone or similar when she is growing new feathers? I've noticed that Casper does, as though he knows he needs more calcium.

So sweet. There is something relaxing about watching them preen, isn't there?

Great video of birdie self-maintenance :). It's so nice that Nike is such a contented bird.

Is Nike a very "dusty" bird? I notice the difference with my quakers, IRN's and cockatiels. The Cockatiels are worse than the rest and I believe that is true for the toos as well.
