Last year, Despina posted about Peppie, a Wonderful 17 year old budgie she saw on facebook. I was also a great fan of "Grandpa" Peppie, and deeply saddened when he passed away several months ago at age 18. He was handsome and hearty until the end, adored by Barbara, his owner, and all his flock of fellow budgies, including his beautiful, long time girlfriend.
Here is my tribute to this remarkable bird - most of the pictures were fairly recent, taken in the last few years...
