Hi! My name is Fortuna because fate and fortune definitely smiled on me December 28th. I was flying high above the San Jose City refuse disposal site in the sharp deadly talons of a hawk, about to be brunch. Fortune stepped in when the hawk accidently dropped me near where a man was working. This man snatched me bare handed out of the muck and the mire and took me to the disposal office. LO AND BEHOLD a dispatcher, who is owned by two amazon parrots, was at work and he knew immediately what to do - Call MICKABOO. It seems he frequents the Mickaboo website and knew we could help. In less than an hour a Mickaboo volunteer was on his way to an avian vet with little Yellow Collared Mini-Macaw me in a cardboard box. Thanks to these people who were on the ball - I got out of harm's way, the cold, the muck, the cardboard box and into a warm safe vet hospital for birds. I am pretty badly wounded from those sharp talons and maybe the beak too but with the vet and Mickaboo supporting me it looks like I'll be fine and looking for a new home soon. If you've had some recent harrowing experiences maybe we can get together and share our stories or maybe we could just get together. I am a little guy and so very glad to still be here to welcome in a new year. Print this page |
