Today I make a nice snack for the birdies.
Soon I’m going on vacation, my sister move into my house to take care for the birds. What a luxury huh 
I did not been on vacation for three years because I did not know how to take care for the birds. This is the ideal solution
Apple, mash thawed from the freezer, hemp seed, buckwheat seed, mulberry berries and bee pollen.
This morning I make a nice salad for myself and the birds get a fresh serving also of course!
Red cabbage, red and yellow pepper, radish, cucumber, zucchini, mulberry, flower seeds, hennep seed and radish.
After a short photo-stop, I started again with pictures for my blog.
Here a preview of today:
Mash from the freezer (ideal if you do not have time), hemp seed, bee pollen and apple.
This website is full of nice foraging ideas for your parrot(s)!
It’s easy to do it yourself and with low costs!

A toy example with two bottle caps:
Last week I made some foraging toys for the birds.
Boxes filled with paper, plastic, toys, pellets and a muffin wrapper, filled with a delicious nut.
Closed boxes and a tie-rip through it, so I put them on the living tree or cage. That’s a lot more fun than when the box is not tethered
Apologies for the lack of blogs but my life is a bit on its head.
I will be without work this month because my boss stop publishing – I’m busy applying for jobs, but also physically ill from the stress because it does hurt to lose my job…
Meanwhile the birds get their fresh fruit and vegetables of course.
Luckily I had some mash and cooking mixes in the freezer in stock and enough fresh home made pellets, so they are not short. But the pictures are not that spectacular
You see, macaroni mix and beans mix with fresh sprouts and a wedge of tangerine.
I promise soon be able to post daily if the daily hectic reduce.
While I was making the pellets # 9 I forgot to add winter purslane. But now I have made some delicious nibbles from it
winter Purslane
honey
banana
apple
mixed nuts
Put everything in the blender and grind to paste, smear on a dehydrator sheet and dry it simultaneously with the pellets. After 2 hours drying I make with a knife a block motif in the paste and when finnish, I lossened the nibbles.
Today I make a new supply of pellets and fresh mash to freeze.
The Saturday delivery of organic fruits and vegetables:
The ingredients for the pellets:
broccoli
parsnip
red peppers
cucumber
eggplant
zucchini
radish
rocket lettuce

(there is also a bag of winter purslane I make cookies of -> see next blog)
I add also cooked quinoa, 2 apples, hemp seeds, mixed nuts and some sunflower seeds.
All through the blender:
Mash smearing on dehydrator sheets:
A number of molds filled with mash to put in the freezer:
Take it out of the molds and in put in ziplock bags back in the freezer:
