having a wistful wednesday

From October 16th of 2025 To our little loveboat We knew at this time your health issues Were growing stronger… We wanted a miracle, For you to be with us longer. You tolerated your meds and fluid injections, But we think you already knew, There was no getting better for you. You took each moment As the little lifetime it was meant to be, We are forever a family ❤️🪶🦜💚🌈🙏 Thank you for choosing and adopting us

Wednesday wishes

❤️have a wonderful Wednesday world❤️ ❤️love is the bond that cannot be broken❤️ You are near I know you are near me Though sometimes you Don’t hear me You are as close As a prayer Which is everywhere ❤️🙏🏼🐦🙏🏼❤️

Pigeons are

Pigeons are truly incredible beings. To know them and know about them is beautiful. Pigeons are beautiful. They are not pests, nor vermin. They partner up, raise families…however and wherever they can. The challenges they face are enormous, as is their courage in facing these challenges. We have a lot to learn from these wise, feathered teachers. ❤️🐦🪶

But love does not bend, To the vagaries and uncertainties. The depth of love Never ends. Pteribird and magic Mikey two flowers among the stars ✨💫

happy friday and wear red day

❤️happy Friday❤️ And wear red day! February is national heart month and February 6th is wear red day, to raise awareness of women’s cardiovascular health. On April 9th of 2021, I was hospitalized for a near fatal heart infection. I had open heart surgery on April 16th, when my condition stabilized. I was in the hospital 12 days. While i was ill, our Mikey worked his magic on his papabeaky, who went back and forth from visiting me at hospital and keeping up with Mikey’s fluids at vet and meds at home. They quietly supported each other. When papabeaky brought me home, we had 7 more weeks of antibiotics delivered through a pic on my arm. And numerous home medical visits. Our Mikey kept us sane and smiling. And they both kept me alive. The bonds we form are as deep as life itself and beautiful beyond what words can express. ❤️💚🪶🦜🙏

winter sucks

i dreamt

dreamt that you sat on my shoulder As you used to do. My shoulder is now so lonely Without you. I miss your little nuzzles Which turned into Beaky bites. And memories of Your presence, Now in heaven light. So day becomes the evening As sunlight gently recedes So i’ll dream again Perhaps tonight. As i silently grieve

so cold sparrow speak

t is so cold outside. I find myself a Place to hide. Among these branches Leafless and near, Maybe the wind Won’t find me here. ❤️🪶❤️

happy friday and dragon appreciation day

❤️happy Friday❤️ January 16th is appreciate a dragon day Dragonfyre part I there was a time when the world was inhabited by men and dragons. together they forged an alliance, based upon mutual trust and respect. the dragons ruled the skies, soaring, playing, searching for caves. they would go on man’s land to feed, but only took what man himnself did not need. man, ruled the earth. he planted, he hunted for food, clothing, shelter. he never lay bare a species of plant or animal, always leaving enough for his winged brethren. he looked to the skies with wonder; dragons flying, birds gliding effortlessly. he did not aim any weaponry at that domain. the sky was not his. men had settlements scattered everywhere. dragons picked caves close enough to keep a watchful eye, but far enough away for privacy. this alliance was a sound one, but maintained by a sense of sleeping with one eye open. this co-existence proved beneficial to both parties. the dragons would breathe enough fire to clear land for man to build. the humans would not hunt any wildlife, so the dragons had an ample supply of food. water was bountiful and both species peacefully shared. the earth was green, lush and plentiful, trees growing where trees were meant to grow, hot desert sands in their place, warm languid rainforests flourished. the dragons surveyed all on this planet. it is said that men would not go anywhere that the dragons had not gone to first. it is also said that the dragons would only take man to places he could live safely, and in harmony, with. for centuries, the planet and all its inhabitants thrived under this well forged partnership. the garden was never depleted, by man, dragon or mother earth. the earth mother was pleased with her children, and regalled them gentle weather. storms teased but were never torrential. #dragonappreciationday #dragonappreciationday2026

thank you

We miss our magic mikey so much😔 Now would be bedtime meds and scritches time with Papabeaky. Mikey loved his papa and his scritches. The sweet little baby would purr like a kitten. He lived a long life for his species and his infirmities, but as all of us who lost a loved one know, its is always too soon when it is their time. Sweet dreams beautiful and very wonderful friends. There is a little star in heaven twinkling as brightly as the sun.and sending you all many thanks for loving him and comforting his heartborken humans

did you

did you ever feel this way? and does it ever go away?

good morning world

the magic that was mikey

❤️Mikey’s magic❤️ Mikey had his issues. Many physical and psychological impediments that could hamper his enjoyment of life…he did not let them. He was bold yet very fearful Cheeky Willful Stubborn Bossy Loud but loved human whispers Bitesy and gentle Empathetic Hopelessly addicted to cuddles and scritches Fussiest of eaters and world class food flinger…and biteses on fingers He would argue, if he could, that the world was all about him so he wasn’t a narcissist. Tough hombre as he endured fluids injections 3 times a week for years, and meds administered by we the humans 4 times a day. His will to live and love sustained he, and we his humans, as he succumbed to his terminal illnesses. He taught us how to serve our feathered overlord. He made us better people. Folks say he was lucky to have hired us…we feel being chosen to be his humans was, is and always will be, a great and humbling honor. We were and forever are, a family. That was Mikey’s magic. He healed even as he needs healing. He gave back more than words can express. All we wanted from him was that he would feel loved, and beautiful. Rest on angel wings, beautiful boidie and know you are loved...and beautiful. ❤️🪶💚🙏🌈

squirrely monday

😘❤️good morning It’s soooo early Forget the bright eyed And bushy tail thing,,, I feeling kinda Squirrely🐿️❤️🎶

Sunday thoughts

We navigate

we navigate when we win or lose, those things in life we did not choose. but this life is a gift of love, something to cherish... this gift from above.

January 10th is peculiar people day

January 10th is peculiar people day and we were our magic Mikey’s own personal collection of peculiarities, which was okay with our king 👑 as long as we served our feathered overlord and he was in the mix. He was and still is the heart of everything and our raison d’etre. Memories sustain us as we try to navigate our lives without his physical presence, our routines of time shared and medical care, the depth of his love, and ours for his magical self. His spirit is around us🌈🙏

orbolous

The mist and mysterious up above. A sky of clouds Kissed by the sun’s love. A tired moon, Drifts away… Night time is Her time to play.

fridaaaaaay

The ragged beauty of the indomitable spirit

❤️good morning beautiful friends❤️ Courage has many faces but one heart❤️ The ragged beauty of the indomitable spirit some of us have not had downy soft lives. we have stumbles, not all of our own making. some of our battle scars are within, hidden to the eye, but visible to those who can see our breaking hearts, some of our wounds are all too apparent. and there is no looking away. do not pity us. we do not pity ourselves. we are too busy living. we are survivors, still here to do battle with the torments from within, and whatever life throws at us. we are here to love, and to be loved. we have not given up nor will we ever. we look forward, feathers or no feathers. perfect, not in our outer trappings, but in the ragged beauty of our indomitable spirit. courage has its own magical embrace♥ Our little hero taught us so much…about love, commitment, courage and the joy of each day. Magic Mikey was, is and always will be, our little love and hero ❤️🦜🪶💚🌈🙏

❤️have the sweetest of Sunday, Beautiful friends. Circumstances change… But love never ends❤️ Papabeaky and I were honored to share our lives with pteribird and magic Mikey. We decided to make this little homage to our great feathered loves, never to be forgotten…always to be loved. This is Mikey’s sleeping cage, which he really loved. Inside we placed numerous little plants we bought yesterday, and the dish we placed his toys in, which now holds his weight diary. We weighed him every evening before bedtime. Pteribird also loved that dish and bathed in it
