Poppe
Uploaded: March 23, 2011
Poppe was the name of the budgie I had as a child.
We were such good friends.
This one looks so much like him.

He looks like my first pet, too. They are such tender buddies to have, aren't they. Beautifully captured. These little budgies are so smart...you can see in in his expression. #1363304Avril Young March 23, 2011

Thank you so much, Heather and Nancy. #9378960Laura E. Swan April 29, 2011
We had lots of these in every color growing up and my brother even caught one in the wild with his sweater one day and brought it home! We loved them a lot! TONS OF NOISE and each kid carried a bird around most of the time!!! When we had like 4 or 5 at once the house got pretty exciting and loud, but they were all so special. When one would pass away we'd make a wooden cross for it and had a little graveyard area in our back yard. We learned young how to respect the honor the dead. For our hamsters, too. So much happiness and love and sorrow and memories.Thanks for this wonderful image and BIG CONGRATS on your FINALIST!
GREAT WORK, Sis!
