march 10th is parrot crisis awareness day
I am a parrot
i cluck i squawk.
i have a will
of my own.
and i do not
always talk.
i eat like a piggy
throwing food all about
in the wild that is what
we do,
so new plants will sprout.
sometimes i am broody,
sometimes i take a nip
or two.
sometimes i want to be alone
sometimes i want to be
with you.
i need a lot of interaction
and exercise...
if left in a dark, dirty cage,
my spirit dies.
i might pluck, i might scream
what else can i do...
if being nice does not get a
reaction from you.
i belong in nature,
though my habitats
are being destroyed.
i am not a decoration
i am not a toy.
i could live a long life
many decades, too
please think very carefully
and decide if parrot
guardianship really
is for you.
or else from place to place
i will go. and never
feel secure.
if you take me home...
please be 10000% sure

nighty sweet
As we try to adjust to life
without companion birds.
An image, as it has been said
Sings softly without words
❤️πͺΆππ¦
good morning
❤️happy Monday❤️
From our little hero who embraced each day as the lifetime that it was❤️
He totally enjoyed the paper shredly medley
The magic that was, is and will always be our Mikey

rapt tor
Raptor grace
They soar
As the look for more
Food for themselves
And their chicks….
Pigeons get out
Of their way…
Quick.
There is power in their ferocity
And grace in their
Velocity.
