Evening with macaws

[StephenAndKyleigh]

I survived another day and am home with my babies! So, the last few days have been pretty stressful. Kyleigh lost a grand total of 8 grams of body weight and my brain flipped into a panic mode. Thankfully I have a great circle of friends and wonderful veterinarian that keep me...and my anxiety...in check. However, if you ever feel something is abnormal with your flock, always contact your avian vet. I would rather play it safe, than be too late.

My keyword for the day is RELAX...because I don't do enough of it.

Love that bottom picture. Kyleigh is full of personality and Peanut looks like he's wearing the chef hat.

That is so, so true, Stephen! Time to relax now. Your flock is lucky to have someone like you.

With birds it doesn't take long for their health to take a plunge so it's great that you're a better safe than sorry kind of guy.

Kyleigh in the second photo! So, so funny.

Glad you have a good support system to help keep you calm during stressful times. Like you, I worry so much about my Baxter (and Girlie) and always take the "better safe than sorry" approach. I've felt a little ridiculous going to the vet sometimes, but each time I took one of the birds in, my instincts were right. You have wonderful instincts - always trust them!

It's great that everything turned out okay, but you definitely did the right thing reaching out to her avian vet.

And I love Kyleigh's pose in that second pic!

These birds keep me young...even though I am only 27 lol. As everyone knows, they can be a handful at times...but the companionship you get from them is very unique in all its way

You are spot-on with that remark,Stephen. I am glad everything turned out good for Kyleigh...AND YOU!

The companionship part..sigh...I truly don't know what I'd be doing,or where I'd be,without my "little green girl",and I am soooo blessed to have such an awesome Amazon.WHISPERING ever so softly.."hello??...hello?" at 2am when I'm coming in the door from a hard nights work...and to know she needs ME..i.e. just yesterday climbing up my shirt to snuggle under my chin,coz an attacking ROBIN scared the c**p out of her!..it boggles the mind sometimes
YOU GO KYLEIGH! you make your Dad so proud of you!
