From February 27th of 2024
MagicmikeycuteasaurusT🦖 aka Magic Mikey and his bedboid stuffy bodyguards, megamikey and pidgelini
❤️🦜🪶💚🪶🐦
Memories and moments
Old routines so missed
a sweet beaky
We can no longer kiss
February 27th is national strawberry day
It’s Friday last
Of a frozen February,
Gone so fast.
today we gonna make merry.
And celebrate the illustrious,
Strawberry 🍓...
Which neither magic mikey nor pteribird
Would allow to enter their beakies...
Have a wonderful
End of the weekie.
(It a streeeeeeeetch but it rhymes😁)

When you
when you find that the source of all happiness comes from that which unites, not divides, us..when you experience that sense of commonality. which makes us all part of the human community.
when you learn that the blood of the divine runs through us all and that we are all a part of that divinity.
when you are finally free from hate, open to love and learning from those who walk a different path.
when you realize, at last, the these paths all lead to the same place and emanate from the same source.
this is when you really start to live
February 27th is international polar bear day
We were born for a world
Of ice and snow…
Our frozen palace will
Soon be gone.
Where did it go.
The world that once
Sustained us and
Our babies,
Now bare.
Will you help us.
Is anybody listening out there…

the elder
❤️happy Thursday
February’s Thursday last
The hours sometimes linger
But time goes so fast❤️
The voice of the elder
The elder spoke of better times
Where to fly
How low how high
The way to feed
Who to avoid
When to be silent
How to act when annoyed
The younger ones sat
Listened and learned
One day they too would be elders
When it was their
Turn
❤️🪶🐦
A year and some tears
❤️happy Friday minus ➖ one 1️⃣❤️
Video from February 26 of 2025
In spite of everything
Our little hero understood
That love is everything
And life is good
❤️🦜💚🪶🌈
in his "own word" from last year
I spread my wings
I spread my wings though I cannot fly
With love and imagination
I soar up high
My wings though old
And long ago broken
Are young once again
With every kind word spoken
❤️🪶💚🎶

And
❤️Good morning everyboidies❤️
Our beautiful Mikey reminds us that love lasts
Far past
The boundaries of what we know
And where our loved ones go.
In our hearts forever and then some…

the the snow became flowers
Then overnight
The trees found some room
So the snow started to bloom
Frozen flowers
Etched in snow and ice.
Spring time wishes
So very nice.

monday and memories
We used to take our Mikey to the vet 3 times a week for fluids, usually on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
And at times, 4 times a week. We tried 5 visits but that did not improve his worsening kidney values.
Our little hero was an inspiration.
Our feathered overlord knew the drill but liked to make us work for it.
Sweet reminders of who was the boss.
How we miss you, little one
❤️💚🦜🪶🌈

Then
Back inside

whats yours is
Hope you are all having a good day
❤️🦜🪶💚Mikey decided that our bed was his bed.
But Papabeaky mistakenly got it into own his head,
That Mikey would share?
Nope mikey biteses instead💚🪶🦜❤️
That little sound he makes at the end🥰

Baked russets or mashed 🥔
And the occasional French fry 🍟
From his secret cache

when i found my wings
When I found my wings
When I found my wins,
I found I could do so many things.
I could hover, I could soar…
I found a world I never knew before.
I could lift my spirit up into the clouds.
Even if only I could hear it…
It was loud.
When i found my wings.
❤️🪶🐦
today february 21st is world pangolin day
we are pangolin

❤️💚🪶🦜Our beautiful pteribird from February 21st of 2014🦜🪶💚❤️
She passed on July 12th of 2014. She was a victim of inbreeding and had a very poor prognosis. She lived far longer than was predicted. She was a happy boidie and a treasure.
We believe she sent us magic Mikey
have a supercool saturday
❤️have a biteyful day everyboidie❤️
If joy had a face
And little toes
And a beakysnoot…
Joy would then be
A synonym
For cute
❤️🦜💚🪶
We miss you

february 20th is also national muffin day
❤️have a fabulous Friday frens❤️
Today February 20th is also national muffin day
Breakfast with our mikey was always a hoot…
As he muscled into the food with his beakysnoot.
He liked what he liked, and we always served it…
After all, he toe-tally deserved it.
We miss you little boidie so so much
❤️💚🪶🦜
#NationalMuffinDay
february 20th is national love your pet day
❤️happy Friday frens and….
It’s national love your pet day❤️
Did our magic Mikey put his own
Biting spin on this…
Yeah you bet.
He decided that we humans
Were the pets.
Far be it from us
To disagree…
He was far cuter and
Smarter than we.

grief
Time heals at times slowly. Our babies move into our hearts and lives and when they pass, the emptiness and silence is deafening.
All we who mourn and grieve can do is go through the process and try to focus on when our babies were happy and healthy.
We feel lost without our loved one(s)
but are trying to cope with the changes, one day at a time.
we reach a state of "okay" but this "okay" is not the same as the one we felt when our loved one was still with us.
love is life.
life is love.
love is beautiful.
love is loss.
love is everything.

have a wonderful wednesday
❤️happy Wednesday everyboidies❤️
From January 20th 2024
Magic Mikey and my yoga pants had an “alter-cation”
Our little tailor decided they needed some alterations
So with his toesies and his cheeky beak
Our boidie decided some holes would make
These leggings look chic.
So he went to work on the aforementioned perforations
And suddenly my legs were wearing a fashion sensation.
We miss you little fashionista

February 15th is world hippo day
But we hippos can be surfy
Ergo
We want to start this party early
We can be quite ornery
We do not suffer fools
We are important to ecosystems
Which makes us very cool
Our babies are quite adorable
As a rule

Life and time change many things but loving bonds are for always

mysterious orb
Mysterious orb floats
through clouds and sky.
Secrets to tell,
But will not say why.
These secrets shall remain
Not always quiet but unspoken…
Will goodness prevail?
There is always hoping
❤️🎶
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
❤️🙏🏼🐦🙏🏼❤️

Mr cardinal
Mr cardinal in cold winter,
tough,
Sits in the wind, feathers a fluff.
his busy day on the wing.
Dreaming perhaps
Of the spring.
❤️🪶
can do
You can do it
You can climb high
You don’t need
Wings that can fly
Just believe in yourself
And, like our magic Mikey…
Just try❤️🪶💚🦜
our little magic mikey
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.
❤️🐦🪶

my feathers
My feathers in the wind are tossed…
As I sit,
No I am not lost.
I sit and wait until
The wind dies down…
Then I shall eat
The good food on
The ground.
❤️🪶💨
Happy rose day
❤️have a splendid Saturday❤️
❤️🌹today February 7th is rose day🌹❤️
A sweet reminder that life is a flower.
Every second and hour.
That time changes many...
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.
❤️💚🪶🦜🙏

And that we were being judged
All humans on double secret probation
In magic mikey nation
