The ride home was amazing! I got a crick in my neck because I kept turning around to peer at them and make sure they were okay!
The pair we were given had already bred together twice so they were pretty close together and fairly calm the whole way, only giving the occasional squawk if we hit an unexpected bump in the road etc.
The weather had been fairly miserable but we got home okay with our temporary cage and because they were aviary birds we obviously had to sort something else out or the birds would start feeling a bit cramped before long! However, mother nature had other plans for us. Although we had ordered a suitable aviary on short notice, we were unable to pick it up because it ended up flooding again in our area.
I say again because the last bad one was in 2011, notably broadcast all over the world with a dodgy map of Australia and making it sound like the whole place was underwater, smacking our tourism industry around the face a few times. It was terrible - I'm not joking about that - but it mostly hit certain areas and my family wasn't in the area that was affected although several of our friends were.
