    I hope Simon likes his new lady friend.

    A breeding pair too? Wow. I tip my hat to you. A friend of mine raised lovebirds and that was quite a lot of work.

    Do they have their own "room" in the house?

    Alexandrines are one of the quietest of the parrots, I believe. Thought about getting one.

    We got a parrotlette instead:
