Are these someone's little darlings or are they wild?

Mahalo (Thank You in Hawaiian!) for your comments on the photo!

Yes, these two little sweeties are my pets! Hand raised from just one day out of the egg (our paperboy asked me to take them). We go outside every afternoon - the birds get to play, take their baths in a plant saucer, dry off in the sun, and climb on me (they love playing King of the shoulder!) - while I weed and putter in the yard. Their wings are clipped - which allows them to coast downward - they don't plummet or fall - but clipping prevents the 'lift' that longer feathers provide. My little flock & I really enjoy the time spent together outdoors (and the yard benefits from the daily tending too!). Although our property is securely fenced I do watch over them constantly (just in case a cat would pass by - Eeeek!).

They are a real joy and truly loved birds!

Mahalo!

It sounds like you have a great family and enjoy such splendid days together.
