Thank you, everyone, for such a delightful surprise and wonderful recognition. I am very humbled by this honour.
Also, I am very happy to be here with all of you at Talk Budgies.

I am striving to be the best Budgie Bird owner / lover and caregiver that I can be for my budgies and for those budgie bird owners and their darlin's in need of guidance.
I will continue to apply the best practices guidelines here at TB, and elsewhere, as well as encourage research and learning in areas of veterinarian and home bird care with other budgie bird owners to the best of my abilities and strengths, and with the continued guidance by other members.
And finally, I want to thank those more experienced members who have been administrators, supporters, participants over the course of a number of years and have brought with them a wealth of experience and knowledge, time and commitment to this amazing forum. I am very grateful for all that you have done and continue to do, here, at Talk Budgies.
...and finally, finally...my budgies thank you!
