"When I am down and oh my soul, so weary,
When troubles come and my heart burdened be,
Then I am still and wait here in the silence,
until you come and sit a while with me."

This is an older piece that I felt I had to re-upload. Gabby was a Pionus who arrived at my work shortly around the time I first started working for Petco, and was really the one who opened my eyes up to the bird world and what wonderful, intelligent creatures birds are. Gabby passed away a few months ago from a bacterial infection, and it still breaks my heart to this day. If it hadn't of been for her, I probably wouldn't have my little Green-Cheek today.

May you rest in peace, Gabby. You won't be forgotten <3
