The Beginning of Something New.
I chose to do my observation on my parrot. He goes by the name of Little Bird. He is a Blue Fronted Amazon Parrot and is roughly 37 years young, well that's what my grandma told me at one point. Little Bird was my grandmother's bird before he came to live with me. The main cause of that was due to me having Big Bird. Now she was also a parrot of the same species but my grandma had given her to me about a year earlier. Back to Little Bird. So my grandma felt that the two birds should stay together for the sake of their health. I love animals so it was unimaginable to even think of saying no. With that being said I welcomed Little Bird into both my home and my heart. Although he has never been rather fond of me I still cared for him. It wasn't until Big Bird's passing that I realized how much I emotionally neglected Little Bird. With some thought after hearing about this project, I made the justly decision to make the subject about this fellow. I felt as if it would give me chance to really connect with this old guy.

I think this blog is going to be great. I love getting the backstory of Little Bird. I'm interested to see how different the two birds are. How long have you had Little Bird? I'm excited to read more about him.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if there was a story behind the birds' names. I'm also curious to hear the differences between the two parrots. I don't know much about them so I'm excited to learn from this blog.
ReplyDeleteI love how you sort of incorporate a lesson that you learned from the passing of one of your parrots, which is to love and appreciate the things you have while they last. Its seems like you have a special and attached bond with Little Bird, and I love it because it shows how a human's best friend doesn't always have to walk on four legs. I am eager to continue reading about your parrot and the memorable experiences he'll bring.
