    Wow that is really sad I have read much from her and enjoyed many of her write ups and she based a lot around that bird... A great loss for sure.

    Awww, fly high Spikey Lebec, watch over your flock.

    I have a couple of her books & several reallly old Bird Talk magazines where she had a collume she wrote each month in. I like her down to 'earth' narratives of living with parrots in her writings.

    Aww..poor Sally. I am sure she is devastated with Spikey's heart attack. I lost my almost 18 year old Noble macaw Mihijo to a heart attack in October and still am grieving for him. The sudden loss is so hard. Long ago when I was still a member of our local bird club Sally spoke at one of our meetings. She brought Spikey with her and her talk was very informative and funny. She is a very nice lady and I enjoyed her talk. I feel bad for Sally right now as I know what she is going through.

    Rebecca - I'm so sorry to hear about your loss of Mihigo. That wasn't too long ago. I'm sure he will be forever in your heart.
