**** **** **** ****
Mom shopped at the pet store where I was patiently waiting for her. For months she'd stopped and talked to me and my brothers but always left without me. I was starting to take it birdsonally. After my brothers went to their new homes, I had mom's undivided attention yet still she kept leaving the store without me. Then one evening after having shopped for the first Grey in the family and sharing a hello with me through the glass, the parronts headed for home, again leaving me behind. But when Mom commented to Dad that it was just sad to see a sweet little bird waiting week after week for a home, Dad, bless his heart, said, "Why don't you just go back and get her." (I love ya, Dad!) So the car was turned around on a bend in the road, a spot my family now calls "Kelly's Corner" and raced back to the store. Mom was just sure, having made the decision to bring me home, someone else would take me. Obviously that didn't happen. She was meant to be my buddy and my photographer.

Hi! My name is Kelly of the McFlock, a Proud Greyt Grey Wing

I am a Congo African Grey from Monmouth, IL.

Kelly-Bird*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*-*-*-* I joined the BC on 2.28.2007*-*-*-- **-*-*-*
My Hatchday is 4.16.2004


9 years old   F

Congo African Grey

It used to be an almond that was the first thing I picked out of the nut jar but lately it's been a raw cashew as first choice.

For some reason, I have to perch on the very end of the branch that's suspended from the ceiling in my birdroom. I like to hide in my cardboard box on the top shelf of the closet in my room while the cleaning services are being tended to. I also like to perch on the top of the closet doors when they're open.

When out of the birdroom, my goal is to make it to the kitchen counters whether by flying there or climbing up the handles of the kitchen drawers. This is only necessary during the time my wings have been trimmed.


Nothing much bothers me. If you think you need to touch my tail though, I might think I need to touch your finger.

My mom's happy to be my faithful sidekick.

I learn my new words from Dad but won't talk while he's around. He has to hope a video can be recorded so he can hear my latest words.

If all else fails, pose pretty.

A Hatchday poem found and shared by SamIAm:

Happy birday, our precious friend,
Our love for you, we wish to extend.
Experiences filled, with joy and laughter,
Special memories, we shall recall after.

From the beginning, you made us smile,
Accepted us, without any trial.
Never judged or jumped to conclusions,
Exciting friendship; random infusions.

We cannot ask, for anything more,
So many things, we simply adore.
Hope this birday never ends,
In our hearts, time transcends.

  Hello Kelly~
Stopping by to say hello to you and to check up on your guy Poirot! I'm not sure I would do well with a sleep over at the vets. I like my vet. She is a very nice lady but seeing her once a year is plenty for me!

I'm sorry you did not win today but you certainly played a great game. This was a really close one and I do hope you are very proud of your team!

Everyone but mom has a cold around here so I haven't seen much of the rest of the family for a few days. They all stay away from me when they are not feeling well. I appreciate that. I has left more things for mom to do but I'm supervising everything and I know she'll get it all done!!

I do hope you enjoy your day!! Please give mom and the flock my love!

  Hi Kelly,
thanks for the hatchday wishes, it is actually my adoption day that is why Simon and I have the same hatchday. I came home first and then the following year Simon came home...

Well, bazebol is finally here and we have our first game on Friday against the big birds...the Major League Beaks.

We need to just relax and have some fun playing some bazebol, we have done the work so now it is time to let our muscles do the remembering...

Bazebol is supposed to be a fun game so lets have some fun on Friday...If we win that will be awesome but if we don't it is not the end of the world. The most important thing is to have fun and do your very best, that is all that I ask of you...

I have set up a bazebol page just for our team...it is page #257230. I will be posting information there from time to time so check in and let me know that you are out there and that you are still keeping in shape and practicing...

  Hello My Cutie-Pie
Kelly, I'm very excited that you perched on your dad. I bet you would have just settled down and looked pretty, if you'd not been removed so soon. Maybe next time :)

I'm keeping my wings crossed that you get to keep yours just a little longer. I do understand that the evil scissors may appear as the weather gets warmer for you. Just hoping...

I'm still talking and playing. We 3P's think that the aviary was fixed up very nicely this year. Silly Pepper won't go more than a foot away from the edge, so he's not discovered all the toys and stuff in the center. He has however tested every single perch in there. Pring has been all over the place. Mama hung a chain up in the ceiling to hang toys from. Pring enjoys hanging out on that. My favourite spot is a swing. I've not gone onto it myself, but when placed there I'll preen and swing very gently in the wind. I'm liking the aviary in a way that I've never done before.

Mama has been in contact with Dr. Speer who suggested that I be brought to his clinic and left there while he figures out what is wrong with me. An appointment was made for me for next week, Tuesday. I think Mama is pretty nervous about the whole thing, but if there is a chance of finally figuring out what's up with me, she wants to do it. I'm pretty good in new places, but I've not been in one without Mama so we'll see how I do.

Wishing you the sweetest of dreams, P*>X<*K

  Hi Kelly girl, how are ya pretty girl, Arthur Alex
...on Friday we play the upstart Major League twerps, do ya think we can dispatch them, LOL! Right now I am getting a Major League dirty look from my little brother, if looks could kill, I'd be a goner! The other reason I stopped by, was to see if I could pick up any news about our dear Mr P! My flock worries about him a lot, he is so very special What an exciting game for the first one of the season. if the rest of the year is going to be like that, look out BC, we are going to have some great fun! Good luck to the Keets and Caws today! We are finally having a more Summer like day here, and we are going to spend less time on the BC, and we are all wishing our daddy Happy Birthday today, but he don't celebrate them any more! Our love to all in your home, have a great day, see ya tomorrow...

  Hello Kelly~
It is always so wonderful to hear from you!! It just makes my day so much better!!

Mom had to work on Mother's Day and was too tired to do anything. We still had a nice day together. She took tonight off. She gets a personal day every year and she has to take it before her year is up.

We had some really nice weather for about 2 weeks. It ended on Mother's Day and the rain came back. Today we had a really strong thunder strom. It only lasted for 5 minutes but the wind was so strong that it brought down tree limbs. It started right when mom went out to take sister to work. She was a bit wet when she got back!

I'm about ready to head off to the night cage so I'll say goodnight! Sleep tight and sweet dreams dear Kelly!

I hope your day was just wonderful! I had sunshine and enjoyed that very much. I had people in the pool to watch and the gardeners to squawk at. It was a very busy day!
Mom went over to the market across the street and then up to the library. She got me a really nice pile of books to read and I can not wait!
I'm am happy to see that your guy Poirot is feeling a bit better. It certainly brings a smile to this little green zons beak!
Enjoy the evening!

  Hello Kelly,
That was very sweet of you to remember my Easter. We did have a very pleasant day and the days following have been nice too. I was going to be in the rodeo parade too, but Mama thought it might be a bit much for me. Maybe next year.

Mama has been so busy and she thought this week she'd have some time to catch up on other stuff. Well the main other thing to do was our aviary. She only got to it this afternoon and put up one big perch. I hope there will be more. It will be boring sharing a perch with Pepper.
I've been outside almost every single day. It's really nice.

My skin is still messed up, but I've gained some weight back and am still talking and playing. This morning found me flying in mad circles around the room. I feel so much like me, that I'm not too concerned about my swollen legs and cracked skin. I've heard nasty rumours that I might be going back to the vet next week. Ugh!

We've had RAIN. Wonderful, glorious rain that actually made the ground WET. The dogwoods are in full bloom and really outdoing themselves this year.

Good night my beautiful birdie. Sorry it's been so long since I flew by your page, P*>x<*K

  Hello Kelly~
I hope you had a wonderful day too! Mine was pretty quiet but that is okay with me. Mom and the kids want to go see Iron Man 3 so it looks like they will go tomorrow morning. That means cooking some stuff tonight so mom will have time to go. Everyone is on such different schedules here that it's sometimes hard to fit stuff in.

I see that Poirot has not left a note in a few days so I am going to take that as he is doing well. I sure do think about him all the time and pray that he is going to make a full recovery.

Enjoy your evening sweet Kelly!!

  Hi Kelly V
Just flying by to say hi and see how you are doing. Mom has been getting us outside when she can. The weather is nice now and we can get some sun on our feathers. That's not so easy in the summer when it gets too hot for Caden and I to be outside. Also, Caden showed a low calcium level in his last blood test so he is getting a calcium supplement. Mom recons that he needs the sun to get some Vit D working for him as well. All this works for me as she sits out with us in the screened enclosure. She doesn't like us to be out there on our own you see. Well time to go. Mom has to get her day started. Looking forward to getting our team photos! MM

  Hi Kelly,
I was thinking the same thing about spring training. We don't have much time left before the games begin so we need to get going on this.

Lets at least have a training day at Kevlar Stadium, maybe on Thursday? Let me know if Raffi is available, okay?

Sure you can count the jogging over to Raffi's place as part of your spring training but it does not excuse you from doing all of the exercises and training that the rest of the team does...lol

  Hello Kelly,
That's wonderful that you've grown that many flight feathers. I can keep my wings crossed that you get to keep for a little longer.

So you've got new neighbours with a sick mower? I'm sure you'll find something of interest to copy from them soon enough.

We now have a clean and empty aviary. Mama brought us out in our small cages, hung Pring's, stuck Pepper's on a table and I sat on t-stand. We were perfectly happy with our quick arrangement and sat out there for an hour and a half.

I've been making up for lost time by talking and talking. Flights around the room have made a come back, so Mama will start flying me again.

Both my legs are pretty swollen, but they've not been as red. The vet sent a spray to put on me. It's a thick yucky gel, but soaks in better than the cream. I hate that stuff being put on me. Luckily I'm not having any shots and if I have my way that's over and done with for good.

Have a greyt day my Kelly-Girl, P*>X<*K

  Hello Greyt Grey Wing,
It's a greyt logo don't you think?

I really like your Derby avatar.

I'm here with a quick good night kiss for you. Despite my skin looking worse again today I babbled up a storm, whistling, saying words unheard for months. I spent a short time out in the garden today too. It was actually fairly hot in the sun. Pring was panting, something that I've never seen her do before. Because I'm still using the heat lamp I was fine out there.

Good night, P*>X<*K

Kelly! Happy Belated Hatchday!... Every year... We are late.. It never fails. Sorry dear friend.. Thank you for always thinking of me on my hatchday. Means a lot!! We havent been on bird channel much anymore.. Life has just become to stressful and busy for Mom. As for us birds we are doing okay. We lost a special person in our household that we became very attached to. Moms Dad who was suffering from liver failure and some other issues died from complications from a stroke in Feb. Mr Birdie and I took it pretty hard. We became very quiet and miss seeing him in his favorite chair everyday playing peek a boo with us. Its been hard for everyone. He was only in his mid sixties. Our Mom has been having a rough time lately. Too much going on in life right now. We just had our check up with our favorite vet the other day. Mr. birdie and I are healthy and looking good. Other than being kinda quiet lately we are okay.. Mom figured Murphy would be learning more words and speaking more often but our Vet says it could be normal.. Timnehs arent known to be as vocal as Congos. :-(.. Anywho.. I am still cuddly and lovable when Mom needs me to be. Thank you Kelly for always thinking of us. It means a lot to have you as our feathered friend. Hugs to you and your flock and we hope that yoyr hatchday was extra special for you.. Lots of love sent your way xoxoxoxo

  Hi Kelly
Yes, it is eggciting but I'm a tired birdie!
DAY 22
Only three fillies ever won the Kentucky Derby.
Regret is the first filly to win the Kentucky Derby in 1915. She raced 11 times, and won 9 of those races and finished second in one. She was never beaten by another female horse. She was full of heart and gave the boys a run for their money.
Genuine Risk was the second filly to win the Kentucky Derby in 1980. Genuine Risk also raced in the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes, placing 2nd in both of them. She was mated to Secretariat. Unfortunately, the colt was stillborn.
Winning Colors was the third filly to win the Kentucky Derby in 1988. As was her habit, Winning Colors broke fast and raced to the lead. In the Preakness Stakes, she finished third and in Belmont Stakes, she finished out of the money.

  Hello Kelly,
I do hope that you get some spring soon. Our trees are blooming and very pretty. Because of Pepper's fully grown wings he can't be photographed with them this year. Mama might take some pictures anyway. lol.

I am off the injections and very happy about it. However my skin problem isn't solved. The vet is thinking about a skin biopsy and a break from the antibiotics might do me some good. Also it will help to be off them for a few days before my skin is cultured. I am also off metacam right now. It was to test if I was sensitive to that. It's been a week now so it's not likely that was the cause.

I've become a bit wary of Mama and don't entirely trust her when she wants to do something with me. You never know what will be next. I had to endure one of those yucky shampooings yesterday. Once I'm convinced nothing is amiss, I do want to spend quality time with her.

It's a possibility that I might make the long trip down to Dr. Brian Speer (6-7 hour drive). He's away right now, but willing to talk to Mama when he gets home. We'll be discussing options then. He wants to explore my x-rays further and do a fluoroscopy (sp) which is a live x-ray, with me comfortably sitting on a perch waiting FOREVER for it to be over. This will be to figure out if I do have PDD, (there I finally said it) or if something else is wrong inside me.

In the few days I've been off the meds I have a tiny bit more appetite. Not as much as I should though. I'm also coming out of my cage more and interacting. I spoke last night and this evening too. Because you've been listening to my movies, Mama has been playing them for me too. Pepper whistles along as well.

Good night sweetie pie and sweet dreams, P*>X<*K

  Nice throw Ms Kelly, from Arthur Alex
...yeah I've done a lot of catching in my baseball career, now I'll toss the ball over to Ms Monty Mae, she is another distraction for me, LOL! Good Saturday morning to all, today the people of Boston can rest easy, the bad guy has been caught, and to that I say Amen! Dad followed much of the story on CNN, and like most, he wonders what triggered this, was it hatred, religious affiliations, or political, I guess we can be thankful they do not all have murderous tendencies like that! Today is our QCPS bird club meeting, LaLo and Ziggy are going with dad, and Jen, Flash, and I will be staying home! Love to all in your home, have a peaceful weekend...

All our Dallas love, from Artie Al and my family

Come visit me, Mr Ziggy~So proud to be a MLB, gooo Beaks!!!, Coach Jenny~Ready to lead the Raiders to victory, Arthur Alex~Proud catcher for the Greyt Grey Wings, WE ARE THE RAIN FOREST RAIDERS~& very proud of it, ANGEL CHRISTY~I'm the White Hawks Spiritual leader, Ms LaLo~Loving being the Silver Slugger short stop & Mr Flash~1st base bird for the C2 White Hawks.

  Hi Kelly,
I kind of figured that you and your flock were just to busy to do much of the baseball stuff this week. It is hard to believe that it has been a year that Mo has been gone.

That sounds good Kelly, the plan does seem doable. Sorry if I am putting to much on your plate right now if so let me know...okay.

I'll throw the ball to Art and do I tell him who to toss the ball to next or is he supposed to pick someone? Not really sure how this works but I want to know...

Thanks for all you are doing to help me out on my first season...

See you later...Coach Chloe

  Hi Kelly, my 3rd base bird and assistant
extraordinaire, have you recovered from your hatchday yet? I see you have lots of notes to answer so that will keep your typist very busy and now Saber is BOTD...

I was wondering if you have been able to get over to Raffi's and let him know how to go about the next training session?

If you could let me know how to do it, I could get him started...

Wing hugs and love, Coach Chloe

  Hi Kelly V
Oh my, we are so embarrassed to have missed your hatchday. We hope you had a lovely day and will accept our belated happy hatchday wishes. Really, Mom has to get with the program. Hehehe. Love Monty Mae and Caden. PS. You make being 9 look good.

Come visit me, Caden - dashing 3rd baseman for the Sluggers & Monty Mae - feisty 1st base for the G Wings.
