I love the parakeets around London. I missed them during winter and was skipping like a child when I heard them for the first time when they returned this spring.

This was such a lovely journey to take with you.

They are such a treat aren’t they 💚

Awww, Kylie-Ann, you definitely saved that bird and did the right thing! I know the feeling of being helpless when it comes to animal rescues. Not everyone would have been as willing and determined as you were! I wouldn't be surprised if that beautiful little bird doesn't pay you a visit one day to say thank you.

Aw thanks Shelly. That happens in Bluey too 😂 (an episode where Bingo saves a caterpillar, the butterfly comes back) I would love that 🙌🏻 🥹

What an adventure - what a beautiful thing. I couldn’t BELIEVE it when I first saw them fly it around in LONDON. How cool. ✨ 🦜

It is very cool isn’t it? We’re so lucky and it was such a strange but beautiful experience seeing him so close as well 💚

Love Bluey! We are obsessed in our house and the parallels you used were great. My husband and I joke with the saying "Parenting makes you weak". That things that didn't really affect us before now make us emotional. This is a perfect illustration of why we say that.

Oh it’s so true Heather. It’s funny because sometimes I’m a crying wreck and sometimes I can power through like a robot, all in the same event sometimes too 😂

Exactly! We grow in ways we do not expect, in strength and vulnerability, in imagination and calculated decisions. It's a wild ride 🙂

This is beautiful Kylie, I was with you every step of the way. And yes I also feel there is a new layer of empathy and responsibility that has been revealed since being a mother. I am certain that you did everything you could for that baby bird and more xx
