I don't know whether this belongs here or in Crossing the Bridge, since it's about a bird, not a cat. But since everyone here was there with me when we found her, and she was named at the suggestion of one of my friends here, I felt that I should share the sad news.
Speedy, the budgie that we found in the street in front of our house last Labor Day, died on Christmas Eve. She got sick while we were gone over Thanksgiving, and we've had her to the avian vet and on various medications and antibiotics over the last few weeks. In fact, that's why I haven't been around much lately...I've been nursing a sick budgie. We though she was doing better, but on Christmas Eve she took a turn for the worse and died quite suddenly.
She was just starting to lose the stripes on her forehead, which is the sign of becoming an adult budgie. She was here for such a little time. I hope she knows that we did the best we knew how to do for her and that we gave her as much love as we could during her short life.
