Thanks so much, Lyn. Yes, I'm thrilled. I'm sure Indi and Paddy would have fun together
And Paddy seems a lot like Indi in that he'll go to anybody and is a real "people" bird 
My sister is softening!
Michelle, my sister who I live with has Down Syndrome. She does not like birds on her - just one of those people. She loves to watch the budgies and paddy in their cages but is freaked out and scared of any bird on or near her. She only ever let Frankie my first budgie sit on her once and it did not end very well (he was fine afterwards, don't worry).
Anyhow she has patted paddy once a few weeks ago which was huge. We went into her room before bed last night and she let him come in - that alone is huge. She let him play on her bed and as he was hiding in the doona she reached out to pat him! I nearly died. I said "Sisi, do you want him to sit on you?" thinking she'd say "noooooooooooooooooo way". Anyhow see below. Paddy will go to anyone and loves people in general. I'm so glad as I need him to be like this as I go overseas for holidays most years for 2 months and would hate him to be bonded to me only. I'm his flock leader or whatever but I'm so glad he will go to others.

Thank youAdorable pictures
Thanks Despina. I am so glad she loves Paddy. It will be such great company for her, as the budgies are also.I think your sister realised that birds can be great friends!
Thanks Ana, it's quite special. Aww, Khaleesi just wants his mum, what a sweet boy.Those pictures say it all, I'm so happy that your sister loves Paddy so much and feels so comfortable with him perched on her. It's truly heart warming!
It really is great that your boy is so friendly towards other people too, my Khaleesi is only bonded to me and doesn't feel safe (flies to me and hides under my chin) when there are other people on the same room he is in during out of cage time.
Thank you Diane, I appreciate your commentOh Madonna, that's wonderful!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks, it's so great for her to experience this.That's so adorable! Maybe your sister and Paddy become great friends!
Yes, Deb. I'm so glad she is allowing him to be closer to her.
Thanks Randy. Glad you enjoyed the photos.Wonderful Madonna, thank you for sharing the story and pictures with us...
Thanks very much. Yes, I guess he did convince her!What a wonderful experience for your sister! She looks quite happy in those photos, they're so amazing. Paddy is a darling little boy for sure, it's lovely he could convince your sister to be with him.
I'm so happy for you
Thanks
