Rainbow Bridge Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... Ria The Netherlands

Hi, Ginny; I think we met here at Webshots! I was looking at some of your other pictures of Rio and Raja and realized I hadn't been to your page in ages. You know how badly I feel about you losing Raja. We hope only the best for you, your brother and Rio and the rest of your flock. Of course, you know that things move slowly in "bird time". It took some of our rescues over a year to adjust. So I guess it's just love and patience and one day at a time...
said keikoabird
Thanks for your kind words - we've exchanged emails too so you know how it is. Bird people understand the hurt for sure. I cannot imagine you without Mango - he is a wonderful beautiful guy. We are hanging in there. Took Rio to the Bird Store yesterday to socialize and help her through it. She isn't eating a lot. Hopefully that will change. She seems to accept it but refuses to sit on "their perch." I guess it makes her miss him too much. I've given her another manzanita perch and she doesn't hesitate to sit there. I guess she will have to depend on the bond between us now because there is no way I could ever replace Raja and I'm at the age now where I shouldn't have any new birds. We will all be okay eventually. Thanks, again, friends.
said ginnylrunyan
Our deepest sympathy for your sudden loss of a beautiful blue and gold Macaw "Raja"... We know you will miss him, I told Val about your loss and she offers her sincere condolences along with me. All bird people know the deep bond that forms between humans and our feathered friends. So many times we have been tempted into getting more birds but have resisted, for now we only have "Mango", perhaps later we may add to our flock as they are such a joy and certainly bring mech pleasure with all their antics. Time will heal your great loss, we are thinking of you. Charles and Val Turner
said chaznval
Thanks, Charley, he was my loudest, most beautiful bird. I loved him very much and he will be missed by my brother and I both and also the rest of the flock. He always called everyone to bed at night and squawked until all were in. I have no idea how this will effect his mate. I hope she can accept it without grieving too much. They were all around when he died. It was instant and totally unexpected. It is way too quiet here this morning. They all know something has happened to our Raja. Thanks for your thoughts. I have always had lots of pictures of him and movies as well. Ginny
said ginnylrunyan
So sorry to see todays notice about Raja. How fortunate you were to have enjoyed the companionship for that time. Your pictures are now a priceless memory. Charley

said sedonaa
Just wanted to say hey...and that im glad im not the only one with the handfull. Only my pair isnt as much as urs. I just have a congo and a goffin cockatoo. People think im odd when i talk about my grey, but to me she is my life. I dont plan on having any children anytime soon...so for now i guess you can say she is my baby. She learns so much each day. Just recentally my husband taught her how to quack like a duck. But whats funny about that is right after she quacks for a few moments she meows. Poor thing is going through an identy crisses. Anyways just wanted to drop in a line. Thanks for showing ur pics on the web. Another bird fenatic. Erin

Hi Ginny! I just wanted to sign your guestbook, and let you know how beautiful your birds are! I really love the blue one with the long tail feathers! I'd love to try raising one of these beautiful birds myself, but they are SOOO expensive! So, I guess I'll just have to enjoy your photos of them! Thanks!!!

Hello Ginny, DPKDOBE3@attbi.com or dpdobes@yahoo.com I just came back to visit and I love some of the new pictures you put up. We just added Dusty a Meyer's Parrot to our flock you may see him at Ladydobe2 page. Donna http:/msnhomepages.talkci ty.com/PetsPl/dobe-house/ index.html
said ladydobe2
I certainly enjoyed your albums! Thank you for sharing! I currently have around 700 pet birds. Nearly all are hand-raised from hatch and extremely tame. We also have dogs and cats, chickens and iguanas. Being such an animal and bird lover I always enjoy seeing other people's pictures too. I must say, Ginny, that I think this album is my favorite...so far! Rio looks so much like my Mackenzie that I think they could be twins! Ahaha! Judy@ http://community.webshots.com/user/jmthornsberry

Your birds are beautiful. Such exotic species. I bet that they are great characters. I've just come back from a holiday where we did a lot of bird watching, and the cockatoos and parrots are my favorites.

Hi Ginny, Thank you for signing Mangos guest book... I like the way you have "Missy" ("Angels") wings trimmed. She looks like a very fine bird. My wife and I are new bird owners and are having lot's of fun with Mango... Mango is quite a famous bird, he was "birdnapped" from a pet store prior to our buying him... Ypu can read his story @ www.calgaryparrotclub.com under Charles and Val's bird... Take care. Chaz T.

Hi ginny. Thank you for visiting my album. You certainly have your hands full with a whole family of parrots. What beauties they are! Love raja and rio. I see Raja likes laying on his back and playing, as does our male macaw Beau. You asked where the hyacinth macaws come from. We got each from a Florida and California aviary, but they are native to the rainforests of Brazil, I believe. We got them under a year old and have had them about five years now here in Lancaster, Virginia. I have heard them dubbed the gentle giants of the macaws. If they are gentle, I'd hate to see rough. Most times they are gentle, kind, playful and delightful.

Ginny, hi, Thanks for signing my book. Your birds are sure pretty. How long have you had them? We have two parakeets, Chikii is bright turquoise, with yellow cheeks, and Happy is pale a lavender. I enjoy looking at bird albums, and just discovered a nice website for baby parrots. They put out caledars, you can see them at: www.babybirdcalenar.com. Don't miss the Nursery page. Gloria

http://www.exoticbird.com/macawlinks.html the above link is pretty good. Don't know if u r on any bird lists. I'm on Friendly Fids on Onelist=http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/FriendlyFids small group but very nice and friendly as the name says. I think Rebel is a boy because his bones beside his vent are VERY close together, would be hard to pass an agg :-)
