He popped in a few days ago, didn't he? (Mind you, I've been so busy lately that what feels like a few days ago, could have been weeks ago.) |

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead
|
He did, but I still miss him. I also feel badly for he and Mrs. JB. It is something really rare and special to take a wild creature like that and raise it as a family member. With the robberies they've had an awfully rough year. |

JBryan adds so much to TNCR. When he's gone, there is a big empty space. I'm looking forward to his return. |

I am the grey one
|
I would like to thank everyone for their support (and the kind words). This has hit me pretty hard. I always knew it would when the time came. I poured my heart out to that bird and made him a big part of my life. My heart is broken for now but life goes on. My family says I should get another bird. I have had four already. One is still alive and living with my mother. It seems I am allergic to cockatoos. All of them were special but this little guy was truly unique. Maybe part of that is because we raised him from a baby. For that reason he always loved my wife more than me even though I fed him and spent the most time with him. He would follow her around the house like a little dog. I didn't mind that at all. We both miss him very much but we need to move on. I will never forget him or stop missing him. Maybe some day I will get another bird but it is hard to think what kind I would get after having had a bluejay. Again, thanks all. |

The love animals give is so pure and so trusting. It really is tough... Birds, especially, seem to grow as attached to their people as their people do, to them. Again, my condolences to you and your wife...
