[Tweeters] 86 Ducks, a couple of Loons, and an Owl

[Kris Anderson]

I am so sorry about your mom passing away.  It is hard to lose a parent.  My 94-year-old mom also passed away this month.  She suffered from dementia too.

My mom didn’t like having pets in the house, but she made an exception for birds.  When I was growing up, we had parakeets, and a cockatiel.  She also told me stories, from before I was born, of a baby crow my brother had found that they raised.  They taught him to talk and he sounded like a real character.
My mom had a bird clock, and one of the last things I sent to her was a calendar with bird photos.  I find some peace being out in nature, and enjoying the birds.
