A sad day.

Just wanted to tell all you good people on A & N, my lovely little budgie (Speedy) died today.

As a younger bird, he was like a budgie on speed - always zipping around the aviary, full of energy.

He was very old, I rescued him in 1997 or 1998, along with an aviary full of other birds, who have all passed away - he was the last survivor. I don't know how old he was when he came to us, so he has had a long life for a budgie.

As we left for work this morning, I knew he was on his way out - he was on the floor of the aviary, in the corner, barely breathing. When we got in this evening, he had gone. At least it was quick for him, which is a blessing.

RIP Speedy. [:o(
