Question:
First why are they called both Quakers and Monks? It seems odd that they could pick up names associated with two vastly different branches of Christianity. Second, if anyone has bought either of these two small books, I’d like to know what you think of teh _Quaker Parakeets_ from The Bird House _The Charming Little Quaker_ from Greeson’s Baby Parrots (both were found advertised in the back of _Bird talk_
