Contrary to what some (ab)users believe this is a good place to post
questions about pet birds.  All that is asked is that you put INDOOR
at the beginning of your subject line.  I have learned much about my
PET bird(s) in this notes group.  There are some very helpful and
experienced birders reading this group and they have helped me a lot.
Then there is people like Mike who spend more time talking about who
should post in this newsgroup than talking about the birds that we
all love and read this newsgroup for :-(

Anyway.... post to this group if you want good info on birds.
