I went over there and it turned out he was high in a big cedar tree. Fortunately, there were branches low enough that I could reach them while standing on the fence. I climbed up about 30 ft and there he was. He hopped on my finger and up to my shoulder and stayed there as I climbed back down. He's back in his cage eating like a horse. Poor little Booger. No more outside trips for him until his wings are clipped. Glad you got your bird back. funny story! My dog used to disappear for a day or so and come back all happy as hell and reeking of shit.

catbirdseat Posted August 19, 2003 Author Posted August 19, 2003 The good thing about the story, Kurt, is that I didn't have to use the spurs. No damage was sustained by the tree. Quote
ncascademtns Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Yea, but now the birds back to make all that noise. How can you stand it. Quote
Dru Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 if only you had another one. you could have experimentally tested the proverb about bird and bush. did you feel a doubling of value when polly jumped into your hand? economists are waiting breathlessly for experimental confirmation on this before they move on to the "a penny saved is a penny earned" proof and examine its deleterious effects on consumer spending.
