Hey I just saw your post about red winged blackbirds, and I really really loved it. This isn’t relevent to birds but your story reminds me of how I loved hydrangeas as a child, but my father always went on about how they were ugly weeds, and destroyed all the plants on our property. Now Im a professional florist, my favourite flowers are still hydrangeas, and i look forward to every summer because I get to create beautiful things with my favourite flowers, and watch how much people love them

thank you!! that’s crazy – where i live hydrangeas are very expensive and even more expensive to maintain, they need a lot of care! they are super beautiful. i’m so glad you got to incorporate something important from your childhood into your passion!!

I love your blog so much!! Thank you for postig a pic of ur beautiful cockatiel boy ♥️

thank you! he is beautiful, but he isn’t mine…i wish! he’s a resident at the bird rescue i volunteer with. his name is gus and he’s 14, his previous owner took great care of him and loved him very much, but developed pulmonary fibrosis and could not keep him any more. he’s a sweet boy – that was the first day he let anyone pet him!
