Going Home!

Posted by Barbara (Florida, United States) on 23 November 2007 in Animal & Insect.

His name is Buddy. Full of charm and character. He has been a visitor since November 5, 2007 the day he was rescued from a tree. Obviously someone's pet, I knew he was being missed. After searching and exhausting all options to locate the owner a call arrived yesterday, on Thanksgiving Day. A woman said neighbors lost their African Grey parrot a few weeks ago. I was hopeful. Within minutes the owners called. They provided the proof I needed, words he used and most importantly the numbers on his leg band put on by the breeder back in 1994. The reunion of this incredible bird and his family was an emotional moment. Definitely a day to be thankful.
Buddy had an amazing vocabulary that would have you in tears laughing. He was also very revealing about the owners habits and conversations. Birds like this tell it all!
It's been fun Buddy, glad you are back home. You will be missed.
