We said goodbye to Fiddle last night. Fiddle was rescued from Pioneer Days in 2019 - an event where he was thrown off of a roof into a crowd of humans for entertainment. Prior to being thrown off a roof in February in Wisconsin, he was kept in a crate on the snow with his leg out and suffered frostbite. Fiddle had to have his leg amputated, and he did so good for so long in spite of it. As he aged, his mobility worsened and his leg began to buckle. While he had a wonderful friend in Scully (who also has one leg), and plenty of soft places to land, his quality of life had gone downhill over the last month. His arthritic ankle began to swell more every day, he had almost no control over his mobility and didn’t even want to be outside. It is such a hard call to make for our friends every time. His suffering had increased more and more to the point where continuing his life was worse than respecting what we believe with all our hearts he wanted. Fiddle will be around for the rest of our lives in more ways than one - by being featured in a design by and as a matching tattoo on Quincy and Finn (by ). This is a big loss for us, he will be so missed. Despite having one leg, he outran us more than once. He loved treats and face pets. He never struggled to express himself, and he was almost too cute to be real. Thanks for letting us love you, thanks for trusting us for so many of your life decisions through the years. Rest in peace forever and ever Fiddlesticks.

Did you know we care for five blind birds? While Ernie and Wolfgang are completely blind, Sofia as well as Tidbit and Lotus (pictured here) are all partially blind. Tidbit has full sight in one eye but is completely blind in the other. Lotus has partial eyesight in both. It is crucial we keep their living areas very consistent so they always know where to find their food, water, beds, and perches. We also keep a very close eye on them when they do spend time in the outdoor aviaries to make sure they’re having a good time and not overwhelmed/confused. Tidbit and Lotus are able to find one another and everything they need easily so monitoring them is mostly to make sure they’re still super duper cute and turns out every single time that yes, they are 🥰

We are preparing for our first workday on Memorial Day! Help us get these birdies some beautiful outdoor time as we fix up their outdoor runs and sheds. All abilities welcome. Drinks, light snacks, sunscreen, tools and gloves will all be provided. *please note - due to the risk of avian influenza, birds are not outside until we have their areas prepped to keep out all wild birds so there will be no/limited interaction with our birds at the first and possibly second workdays.
