I miss my Shadow. He was the best little bird I have ever had. I will never forget the love he had for me. I can close my eyes and see him now dancing and whistling Andy Griffith. I will love him forever <3

I am so grateful that there is a place to talk about our beloved babies. I cry as I write this. Bird people really are a special breed. This year I lost my darling Love Bird. I had him from the cradle to the grave. He was always nuzzled in my neck, kissing me, or bossing me around. In the end, he waited for me to come home and hold him so he could die with me. We were family ever since he hatched 16 yrs ago. My friends try to comfort me by telling me that he had the best life. I know this to be true but to me, it never seems acceptable. I have larger parrots that I love too but nothing can compare to the love that this little guy gave. I miss him terribly.

My Yellow-naped amazon, Baby, died yesterday and I am so devastated. She died from a tumor that burst on one of her Fallopian tubes. It is hard to diagnose that and we have a good avian vet nearby. She was a rescue bird, I bought her from her previous life, just sitting in a cage and being ignored. She was with me 23 yrs and thru it she grew inot such a wonderful and even tempered parrot (even the vet said so).

I am just looking for a place to talk out the grief right now.
