Talking Long time Bird owner , new to this list, but known by many in here

Hi, This is John in AZ (formerly known on other lists inthe past as John in NJ)
I was recently referred to this site by a friend I was looking for to give some information to. I have been involved with birds for over 20 years now, and I am currently owned buy a Blue Throat Macaw and an African grey. Until recently I had others that were lost due to a very unfortunate incident that I have not been able to talk about until now. Give me some time and I will pass this warning on to the boards.

Regards.

John

John, so glad to see you. You have been sorely missed by many.
My heart breaks for your loss but I am very happy to see you posting again.
I am sure that with time many more will come to value your input and your just being ... you.

Smile Hi John

Hi John, Welcome. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. When you are ready to talk, I would love to listen, if you need to.

I have two CAG's, Bubba and Ziggy. You said you used to be John from NJ. I live in NJ. Where did you live in NJ?

I would love to hear advise from someone who has had birds for 20 years. I could use adivse at times. I have only had my two fids for 4 years now. Bubba will be 4 and Ziggy will be 3 in April.

Hope to hear more from you soon.....

Regina

Welcome John...
I too am owned by a CAG (Iris) and a male Eclectus (Clover). You have my condolences for your lost. I do hope to hear about your experiences. I am sure that they will be enlightening and informative to many of us here.
