Thinking of you...

@Bird mama

It fascinates me that pets, birds especially, feel so deeply the loss of one of their "flock."

I was home with Peewee when she passed.  I placed her in her main room so Poppi and Presto could see her to try to understand that she was gone. It felt like someone was removing my heart when Poppi and Presto checked her out curiously.

She passed on a Saturday evening around 7:45 pm (4th of July weekend). I can tell you that this house was completely silent, not a coo or a chirp unitl Monday morning.  I was so scared for the remaining birds, I called in on that Monday and didn't go to work.

@birdmama - cute clogs, those do work for casual Fri. most offices.

Might there be a little sparrow sib for Poppi? Funny picture of Poppi sidling up to her pigeon bro... "Hey Sailor" lol He's like, "You're not my kind sistah."

@gmkb - Take care of yourself.

I'm off to... maybe go to b'fast in a couple hours if they clear the road. My other Saturday ritual.

Have a blessed week everyone. Enjoy your new buys.

eta - @Bird mama wow, no music in honor of little Peewee's passing. So sad and yet sweet too.

In my faith the writings say that when we (humans) die, we are like birds who've lived in cages all our lives, and at death the cage falls away and we fly free.

Time for some hibernation with the pusses.  Stay warm, get well (for those who are ill) and enjoy your weekend!

Getting two for less than the price of 1.

Remember the Nordies boots I ordered last week-- they don't fit right, but these do.

@Bird mama

I'm off too.  Lots of laundry to catch up on.  I didn't do anything at all last weekend and am far behind.  Enjoy your week, everyone.

Because my home serves as a bird home, bird bed and breakfast, bird rehab and bird hospice, I've witnessed many a bird crossing over the bridge.  

For a few seconds each time, I've felt like a portal has opened and I've felt the presence of something sacred.  The birds I have been with always inhale one more time and then spread their wings out as if they are taking flight.  By the time their wings retract, they are gone.

It's been my honor to be there to witness the transition.  I was so blessed to experience it with Peewee since I was there the day she hatched.  I pray that I am able to do the same with her brother Poppi.

Have these shoes. Love them. Needed to put the pads that go around your heel in them. Otherwise, they slipped.
