Back to the topic of our flying feathered friends, I stumbled
upon a missing bird sign while on vacation. It was posted at the local general
store in a small town near where we stayed. There was a large picture of the
bird on the sign (his name was not provided) – it was a beautiful bluish
cockatiel with white and orange features. I think it’s one of those birds who
can talk. This situation struck me as heartbreaking since this was obviously
someone’s beloved pet. The sign was three weeks old so the likelihood of the
bird being found was low unfortunately…
I really hate reading these "missing pet" posters. They really
don’t have an upside. Someone should address this. OK, I guess that person is
me. Can we start distributing pictures of the pets that ARE found, those who
are reunited with their loved ones? That would provide some balance and make
the whole thing easier to swallow...
In the meantime, if you hear a fresh melody in your backyard
or a new voice coming from your tree, please let us know here at Uncle Tommy’s.
Thanks!
