Well we are going to have to have a special little dinner tonight with Salty and the family, in honor of Rickey's hatchin' day, serving the favorites of both parrots, corn and green chilies.
A Very Happy Hatch Day, Rickeybird!!
From your friend Julio!

Y'all's the bestest. I cannot tell you how rewarding it is to know and be known by this Community. In the old days, I felt pretty alone as I coped with my inconvenient, indecorous, ignominious (okay, I used the Thesaurus) pet. But after being embraced by the Forums... everything changed. I became a bonified member of a Community which embraced the celebration of psittacine companionship. Bites, poop, screams, destruction... it's all okay. In fact it's all part of the fun as we share the stories of our beaky companions.
I wish I had had you guys for the first 32-or-so years of the Rb's life, but I'm just glad and blessed that I have had you for the past 6-ish.
Parrot Forums RULE.
Love,
Me'n'theRb

Thanks, darlings.
I extended his celebration to the whole week.
Hey, Lea, how you been?
Saxy, I know Mother always loved you best, and so did I.

How about a little birthday poem for my boy? I hope you enjoy it.
Old Bird
Dedicated to the Rickeybird, and to Old Birds everywhere, and to the people who love them.
Old Bird. My bird. My bird, forever.
Time finds such meaning in our time together.
Mi vínculo con la Verdad (My link to the Truth).
And to Nature. And to youth.
And age.
And ages.
We have both had cages...
Of work and wages, loss and rages, dark back stages.
But we've turned the pages.
We've cut through the mystery.
Of life, love and history.
For us, it's just chemistry.
This morning, you greeted the dawn with your usual screams. Animation, jubilation, exultation!
Mid-day, I caught you in an unexpected nap. It's late afternoon now. Need another quick rest, my little rooster?
Someday our play here will draw closed its curtain.
We'll stay together, though. Somehow I'm certain.
That's what Eternity's for!

Well word crafted dear lady!
Old age is a wonderful time in one's life.
Enjoy it, never waste it, like a fine wine, its to enjoy with fine friends...

Quite right Mr Boats, and there's none finer than Aunty G and Rival and that simply marvellous and incomparable Rickeybird!
Much love from our little Aussie kingdom (Princessdom?) to yours :smile015:

Doing well! Tapatalk got so glitchy on my phone so I deleted and am back to the old fashioned laptop contact. So glad RB is still well. Kevv still giving me fits but we would not have it otherwise.

Thanks, Boatsie, Martypants, and Lea... dear friends... I wanted to hear exactly those words. Big love to you and to all the "Thanks"-ers.
No, no... Thank YOU! I read that poem over and over, and found it hard to comment through all the tears of joy, sadness, and everything in between when I think about my feathered kids. Absolutely beautiful, sweetheart!

Well, our hero is growing older, as we all know.
I have had to take some of his more exciting toys away from him, cuz he gets all excited and falls off his perches while playing/fighting with them. Kinda like when you have to take grampa's keys cuz he really shouldn't drive anymore?
But life is still good... plenty of morning sun, fat chiles, fantasies of hot henz...
Somebody cue up the 'Chiles of Life' video.
