The budgies did well during the packing up phase, mainly because of their location in the "summer palace". However, a bittersweet moment (for the human flock) occurred when Mia and Magoo were adopted. The good news is, that we now have a new family which has joined the human flock, especially, several girls who seem very well suited to budgie ownership. I haven't heard yet if they are enjoying the budgies, but I certainly hope so. If they don't like the budgies, we offered to take them back. It was a no risk adoption. I was rather sad at first to see them go, especially Magoo, who hatched in our house only just this last winter, but I know he will be happy. He may even be renamed Ringo!
The drive and the stay near Nikko the cat (the latter of whom resides in Louisville) went well, but deserves longer posts in the future. Pictures will also soon be posted from the trip. The budgies were very quiet around Nikko, probably instinctually. In the Prius, while driving, however, they seemed joyous and sang and chirped the entire way, especially if country music was playing, or classical.

I am very glad to hear that Mia and Magoo found a new home. I think that Ringo is an excellent name for a budgie. According to Wikipedia, Ringo got his name while playing with a group known as the "Raving Texans". So, only appropriate that the new Ringo will have gotten his name when his parents moved to Texas.
