Now for my Official Entry!
The meaning of this image-
Some time ago Valentine experienced an injury which many didn't expect him to get through.
It would be a nightmare to feed him as he couldn't eat by himself.
For the first few days I didn't allow Valentine to see Sky because of the condition he was in, but when she finally came to visit, he was so happy! The reaction is unforgettable. It gave him confidence to fight the battle which he had nearly lost. Eventually, I decided to let him out after a week had gone by, Sky following him wherever he went making sure he was alright. She always stuck by his side, no matter what.

Here is another Just For Fun picture of the birds watching the sunset together.
(Sky still watching over him!)

Yesterday he just turned two years old! Now chewing at his kabobs.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about this. Thrilled he pulled through. Gem, will you share with us what happened to Valentine?
It's a lovely image, they both are, thank you so much for sharing. :heart:

Valentine's story is doubly apt for this contest!
 
One of my favorites of love bug Tucker and my granddaughter. He's so sweet and gentle with her.

And just for fun, a solarization/almost silhouette. Tucker's favorite place to be... Nose to nose, staring into my eyes

Wow! I love both, but the pic of Tucker and your granddaughter absolutely floors me! One of the sweetest pics I've ever laid eyes on!

If you looked up "Contented Bliss" in a visual dictionary, I'm pretty sure these are the pics you'd see!

Thank you Stephen. Granddaughter just turned 4, and Tucker turned 4 in July, so they'll grow up together :) The best thing is her little giggle every time his beak touches her face. Melts me every time.

Growing up together. That's amazing. And you're not the only one being melted around here. Such a heartwarming sight.

Whoa, that's a big heart!
laurasea-albums-pikachu-picture22254-img-20200212-113723799.jpg


This photo session starts with heart and and a whole lot of " oh my word " panic flying. Then a lot of bribes while we stand by it, then a lot bribes to perch by the heart. :) After a couple of hours trying to get them all together we tired! But I'm going to keep trying later!

Come on parrot forum start taking pictures, we need more love!

Thank you all for your kindness.
I don’t really know what happened to Valentine because I wasn’t there but all I know is that he seriously hurt his leg. He ended up catching an infection meaning he had to be on multiple medication. Unfortunately, he lost his leg.
This little, but brave Valentino made it through, not whole but full of confidence.

I am so sorry to hear this, poor little guy. Thank God, you found it when you did, and was able to give him the help he needed. You could have easily lost him over this. Thank you so much for sharing his story. He is one special bird! :heart:
 
Forget me and Joe, just look at how Kiwi and Cas are looking at each other! They spend a lot of time looking with loving curiosity at each other :07:

Was wondering after your family... So happy to see that everyone is doing well and that your boys are loving on each other!

What a wonderful contest entry...
