Re "we are hurting": Not any more. We found her about 2-3 miles away, behind a Firestone garage. Cold, scared, hungry, thirsty, weak, but otherwise all right. She is quite subdued still, but that could be the lack of sleep and god knows what else. Amazing coincidence: while we were busy canvassing the 3 block radius of our neighborhood, she was 3 miles away. Luckily, a relative of one of our neighbors happened to be at the Firestone, spotted Bibi, recalled the discussion of his mother-in-law about those poor souls wandering the neighborhood calling out "Bibi - wheere are you", and soon we were in cell phone contact (we were interrupted in plastering the third layer of posters around the neighborhood).

Its great to read good news. Did she come to you as her protector or did you have to coax her back? I expect she has a lot to think about now. She has just discovered the world is a huge and confusing place.

She didn't have enough energy for much else. The guy who found her stayed with her on the ground until we arrived. She looked pretty pitiful huddled down on the pavement (it was in a commercial alley) and lookiing bedraggled. We've spent the last 24 hours with her and she is fully back up to snuff (with her freshly trimmed wings). >> Our CAG BIBI flew out the door at 7205 Cutter Mill Drive Dallas TX >> 75248 on 28 April 2005 at 5:00 PM [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > >A truly joyous day! What a relief for you. Be aware that now she has learned to fly without restriction she'll have tons of confidence. After my bird flew off and was gone overnight he managed to leave two more times that same summer, in spite of a wing trim. He'd gotten so cocky and full of himself he would just take off if the opportunity presented. He seemed to forget this by the following summer, though he hasn't forgotten the skills. He can bank and land on the furniture perfectly. No more fly and clutch desperation. Glad you are reunited. > Be aware that now she has learned to fly without restriction she'll > have tons of confidence.

Your bird learned he could fly after escaping the first time, yet you *didn't* learn to keep doors and windows closed so that he couldn't escape. I always suspected some people had a lower IQ than their pets and you have proved me correct. > > Be aware that now she has learned to fly without restriction she'll > > have tons of confidence.

You know nothing of Hillary's circumstances At least she didn't nail her pal to his perch. (I hope ! :-) ) Steve n Misty You're really a pleasant person.

Just as I know nothing about a woman who allows her parrot to escape 3 times, you know bugger all about me. Your message tells it all. n Sun, 1 May 2005 21:54:28 +0100, "pammyT" <fenlandfowlREMOVETHIS@talktalk.net> wrote: >> You're really a pleasant person. >Just as I know nothing about a woman who allows her parrot to escape 3 >times, you know bugger all about me. > Your message tells it all.

People must love being your company with your lovely personality. In fact, he spends all day in his tree when I'm out in the garden. His wings are trimmed. Thanks. Bibi will stay trimmed and away from temptation! You and Bibi are very lucky. The Flock and I send regards > Thanks. > > Bibi will stay trimmed and away from temptation! >Thanks. > >Bibi will stay trimmed and away from temptation! Thanks for the followup posts. Happy endings are great. |
