14 Years

We have had a sad week.  One of our lovebirds died on Tuesday.  She had been ill for a while so it wasn't a surprise.  But it certainly still hurt.  I had gotten her for my 44th birthday (bird-day).  Bertram was over 14 years old which is about the life span for this type of bird.  (The bigger the parrot - the longer they live.)  She was the smart, feisty one with a big personality.   Her bird buddy reacted by confusion, anger and now just clingy.  We all need some time.
