[Ashling]

I was just getting all mooshy thinking about my little sweetheart, Ashling. I was watching her sleep by my side, so small and innocent. Her tiny eyes were shut, little grey eyelids and upturned beak making it look like she was smiling and happy. Her head was fluffy and if I touched it to scritch her, she'd whistle softly and turn her head to the side, fluffing her feathers even more. When I reached for the remote, my body moved a centimeter away from her and she urgently snuggled deeper into my side, ruffled her wings and went to sleep. When I slid out of bed to go on the computer, I stroked her head to keep her sleepy, covered her with the blankets to keep her warm and tiptoed over. I looked back, and her little head had poked of the covers and was watching me. She whistled to say "come back" and crawled towards me...

Tell me one of the little things that make you love your bird even more... the little things that make you smile...?
