Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for February 06, 2022

Some bird? Was it Randy?

A lot of birds like parrots and mynahs can also do human calls.

Imagine Marigold talking with Ethan. What do those two talk about?? LOVE Ethan! The bird’s really cool, too. :-)

Imagine Marigold talking with Flying type Pokemon! All the Pidgeots, Dodrios, Xatus, heck, even The legendary birds!

Not quite what Phoebe had in mind, but different and clever!

Do birds get unicorn spam calls?

As far as birds go, talk is cheep!

Marigold got the bird and the bird got Marigold.

When Phoebe makes a casual remark, it can lead to some amazing things!

Lovely bird on Marigold’s back.

So Marigold is on Twitter.

Okay, nicely demented. I LIKE nicely demented.

Will Marigold get her own Woodstock?

I do believe that is a Prothonotary Warbler on Marigold’s back…

Fly like a song, fly while you’re singing

A song without you is a bird without winging

Some city flights leave in the morning

Some city nights end without warning

Can you hear me call?

If I could do this, I would take some terrific wildlife photography. I still remember that hummingbird that flew right in front of my face for, like, ten seconds straight, and as soon as I got the camera out, flew away. I swear it was done on purpose to mortify me.

Gasp! Marigold is really St. Francis of Assisted Calling!

“I suppose making bird calls is pretty cheep, huh?”

.

“No, it is a dollar-ninety-nine per minute.”

I’ve never had a bird close when holding a camera, yet had food in hand in transit to mouth pilfered by seagull zooming by more than once.
