This wild Kingfisher's grandparent, I found in the garden, nearly dead, some years ago. Nursed him back to health, and set him free. The next morning, the family swooped down, past me, in gratitude.
A couple of years later, I awoke to find the next generation, a parent of this bird, waiting for me on the terrace, his wing seemed broken. I picked him up and examined him. He never flinched, and stared deeply into my eyes. A thorn had locked his wing from operating. I pulled it out, and set him free. Without fail, he passes my window every day at the same time, crying out to me.
This baby, sat in the tree, eye to eye with me, then flew directly to my hand, and sat there for several minutes, before flying away.
Intuition, compassion, good intent, those essences of love, was all we had. Pure, unspoken.
An energy that has no end, and passes silently onward, much further than we can imagine.

So sad. Copied & pasted from a Japanese chin group member.

PSA: Dog Safety Alert
I have needed 24 hours to process the horror of yesterday. I am going to share the details of Milo’s death to turn this awful negative into a positive. If I save one dog from this post and one dog owner from going through what my family is going through then Milo did not die in vain.
Yesterday morning, my son discovered Milo dead with a chip bag over his head. Milo had gotten into a trashcan and pulled out the chip bag and it became stuck. We will never know if he suffocated or had a heart attack from the stress (he currently had a stage five heart murmur… minor stress, could have been the end for him). Either way, my mind will only believe that he went quickly. We are all struggling with this tragedy, especially my son so if you have it in your heart to say a prayer for him, it would be appreciated.
What we have learned in the last 24 hours is that this is not an isolated incident. Every year about 1000 dogs die from getting chip bags stuck on their heads. My husband and I have never heard of this and couldn’t even imagine it. It is apparently more prevalent among the dogs under 30 pounds but can happen to any dog. Dogs with long snouts are also incredibly susceptible. What we have learned is the easiest thing to do, when a chip bag is emptied, is to open it the other end before throwing it in the trash. We have also learned that the bags that have the silver lining on the inside are the most deadly, because they are almost impossible to shred. And my hope with sharing this is that each, and everyone of you will begin to open your bags at both ends when you throw them away, and that you share this life saving tip with all of your family and friends.
As a dog owner you spend their life loving & protecting them …accidents will happen but with shared knowledge we can reduce them.
Thank you for reading & please please please share Milo’s story!!!!
