Bird has been a little more talkative lately… and we think we know why. 🤍

Not long ago, he reached through the bars, took my finger, and held on. Since then, we’re hearing more sounds, more curiosity — and today, a soft, careful “peekaboo.”

For a 27-year-old Umbrella Cockatoo who’s still learning he’s safe, this is a big step. Trust doesn’t just show up in touch — sometimes it shows up in a voice.

Ceilidh (pronounced Kaylee) is an African Grey, which means she has mastered the ancient art of emotional deception.

Step 1: Reach out her foot like she’s ready to step up.
Step 2: Make direct eye contact like she’s an angel.
Step 3: Activate beak.

If you know, you know. 🤣
Trust is a journey… and Ceilidh is still deciding if we deserve it.

McKay’s idea of a bath is equal parts splash, soak, and pure joy 💦🦜

Water time is serious business for macaws — it keeps feathers healthy, spirits high, and personalities fully activated.

This is Bird.
He’s 27 years old, newly arrived, and still very unsure about the world around him.

He’s cautious with every movement, watching carefully, weighing every interaction.

Today, something small but profound happened.
Bird reached through the bars of his cage, gently wrapped his foot around my finger, and held on. And then… he didn’t let go.

No rushing. No pressure. Just a quiet moment of connection.

This is how trust begins with parrots like Bird, not with big gestures, but with tiny choices. And today, he chose to reach out.

The first video was taken at the vet while Wiggy was preparing for surgery. She walked across the table calm, trusting, and needing comfort in that moment.

The second was after my surgery.

Wiggy passed away in October.

But this is what I want people to remember — not the loss, but the bond. The way parrots show up for the people they trust. The way love moves quietly, without words, without conditions.

She was never “just a bird.”
She was family. 🤍
