Birds in 8 words or less?

Hello! MickaCoo is getting the gift of a tile that will be permanently on display at SFACC and honor the shelter's birds (99% of the tiles are tributes to dogs & cats)! I need your help to sum up a worthy bird message in 8 words or less. Today! I'd like to have something that honors all the birds of SFACC- pigeons & budgies and everybody else- and that inspires support for them. The best I've been able to come up with is- Emily Dickinson's (10 words) Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, or Remember the birds- Pigeons, parrots and doves Need love too! (10 words) *Please help with 8 wonderful bird words!* -- Elizabeth * * *Please help MickaCoo win a much-needed Pepsi grant- vote everyday at http://www.refresheverything.com/mickacoo* Until they all have homes, don't buy, don't breed- adopt. www.RescueReport.org www.MickaCoo.org http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGjyooh3Yo0

Off the top of my head: Feathered friends need love too. Feathers happen (or sometimes don't!) It's not only fine feathers that make fine birds. (9 words) My heart is like a singing bird. (quote attributed to Christina Rossetti) I love the Dickenson quote though. I also like this one from her (which is to long): I hope you love birds too. It is economical. It saves going to heaven. ~ Ailsa

You could paragraph the second Dickenson quote:
...loving birds...saves going to heaven.
