A little about Sophie...

I got Sophie at a local bird show from a breeder in the SF Bay Area in 1996..  Sophie was 6 weeks old when I got her.  She had to be handful from a syringe several times a day.  She has grown up to be a whiney, clingy, super cuddly bird.  She is very sweet, but she has a horrid scream.  She says a few words, "Hi Sophie", "Fatboy", "Kiki" (my mom's cat), "Get out of here", "be quiet" (she never practices what she preaches), and a few more.  She gives kisses on command (makes the little kissing noises with it that actually sound like Popeye's laugh).  She loves oatmeal, macaroni and cheese, chicken burritos, and mashed potatoes.
