Watch my life unravel...
|
The good news is that Duncan doesn’t have diabetes or a problem with his thyroid. The bad news is that he’s got kidney disease. And the bad news with that is that there’s no cure. But treatment can make him more comfortable and improve both the quantity and quality of his life. Treatment. If I […] I took Duncan to the vet yesterday for his annual checkup. For three years (ever since I adopted him) they’ve been telling me he needs to lose weight, and for three years he’s been losing weight. He has gone from about 24 pounds down to 18 pounds. They say he still needs to lose about […] I got a sewing machine! One of my long-time regular blog readers, Connie, very generously offered me her Husqvarna Huskystar 224, which she hasn’t used for a few years. (Like me, she leaves a string of abandoned hobbies in her wake. And, like me, she used to live with eleven birds, although the most I […] Here are some of my babies. Kazoo and Duncan Baby Birds The theme of the group art show currently at the John Patrick Mills Gallery on Hinchey Street was LOVE. I should have created some living lovebird art. I didn’t think of it until we were already there. Here’s Jennifer, who works at the art program […] Here’s Kazoo! I haven’t been able to get any good pictures of him yet because he’s still a little shy, and he hangs out way up there near the ceiling. (He’s on a perch on top of his cage.) His cage is huge.

I say this because several people tried their hardest to pry this particular secret out of him over the past few days, and his lips remained firmly sealed. Me, on the other […]
Female and male eclectus parrots This is a pair of Eclectus parrots. The red one is the female, and the green one is the male. I want one. I think about them all day and I dream about them at night. They’re great talkers, they’re gorgeous and they have really nice personalities. You […] Okay, now here’s some MAJOR news for you. Drum roll, please. BANJO CAN FLY! He turned one month old today, and he celebrated by flying off my finger while I was washing his face after breakfast. I was so surprised. I just assumed Piccolo would fly first, since he’s the oldest. And I thought it was […] I’m having one of those days. It’s 2:00 in the afternoon and I’ve gotten less than nothing done today. I was further ahead at 3:30 this morning than I am now. That’s when the wee birds woke me up for a little meal. I love those baby birds, truly I do, but why do they […] You know what I’ve noticed? The weeks fly by a lot faster when you’re unemployed than they do when you’re employed. And there still aren’t enough hours in the day to do all the things I want to do. I wish I could live forever. This week was largely taken up with all the babies […] |
