RIP Boo Boo

August 1998- August 2008
Boo Boo was our parakeet that we got as soon as we moved to Orange. About 5 days ago, he began losing his balance and fluttering around on the bottom of his birdcage. I "researched" online to find that parakeets usually only live 5-7 years. Boo Boo had longevity! 10 YEARS. He passed away on Thursday, Aug. 14th...my first day back at work. Although not the same feeling as losing a dog or cat, we were so used to him singing in the background of our sunroom. He'll be missed. Not something I wanted to do on the first day back at work.....bury my bird on my lunch hour! Take care---and, listen to the birds sing !
