Newbie was (almost not a) Nervous Bird. Won an award because he knew what's what. Oodally ooh.

Rosie is a badass Resistance Bird who is Definitely Not Nervous.
OMG

I just realized that Rosie appeared roughly 10 days after this post.

I said I WANT A BIRB.

And the Birb Distribution Center answered!
I WANT A BIRB I WANT A BIRB I WANT A BIRB

Just saying.

But not until construction stuff is done in my apartment.

Maybe when classes end…

This is my first RESISTANCE post.

It's my RESIST screm.
(Followed by some kisses.
Because I like you.)

Because I know what's what.
And it SUCKS.

Signed,
Rosie the NOT-NERVOUS Resistance Bird

I'm having a night, guys.

A sudden wave of missing the bee.
So much.

Birb love❤️

Pico the cockatiel
Liked to nestle under my chin & let me scratch him. Ate my books in grad school

Boo
18 yr companion
Knew my every feeling
Said he loved me. A lot
Ran to me when I was sick
My buddy & my heart

Newbie the History Bird
My rescue pandemic bird.
Gave me pure constant love

Wish I had Japanese Newbie here.

I miss the bee.

I’m still here!!

If Newbie were here, he’d have some SERIOUS OUTRAGED BELL-BANGING TO DO.

Hey there, Newbie Nation!

Just a wave hello. 👋🏼

I FORGOT THAT NEWBIE HAS A BLUESKY ACCOUNT!

I'll be posting more here!

Look at this little face.

I miss my little oodler.
I know that's obvious.
But I'll say it anyway.

Beaming in here just to say hi and thank you for caring about the Newbs.

I’ll be back.
That sounds ominous.
Didn’t mean it that way.

One of the people at the Animal Medical Center was special. She found one last Newbie feather—and sent kind words.

Protecting her privacy, but I’m so deeply grateful.

A little Newbs. Just because.

Most of you reading this probably already know.
But I'll make it official.

Newbie the History Bird died yesterday with me by his side, singing to him & telling him how much he was loved.

Thank you for loving my little green bird.

I'm setting something up for charitable donations. More soon.

My Human came home!
I love My Human.
And she loves me.
OODALLY-OH

I got fan mail! Someone wrote to My Human about the podcast that she and Heather Cox Richardson and I co-host, asking if they were imagining things, or if they heard a swing banging a birdcage in the background.

It was ball-banging me!

No paparazzi please.

My Human is having a martini.

Somehow, I'm always more chatty when she has a martini.

Funny how that happens.
