03/02/2010 The New Kids on the Farm Thank you to everybody for your kind thoughts and words about my little friend. I sure am going to miss him.

02/28/2010 This is Freckles. We got him about 12 years ago when he was a hatching. He was my oldest son's 12th birthday present. He died this evening. I'm really going to miss him. I know the dates are a little out of order here. I had already posted tomorrow's image before I found Freckles on the bottom of his cage. But I did not want to wait until Tuesday to honor my little friend here. I felt it was most appropriate to do so on the night of his passing.

03/01/2010 The safest feeling in the world next to being in big brother's arms is being in his jacket. No post processing on this one. I kind of like the way the low lighting looks. So I left it SOC. Thank you all for the birthday wishes for Dominic. :)
