Not last night, but the night before ...I was woken by a soft but articulate voice saying, "Take care; Grim Reaper Grim Reaper." It was our cockatiel Lady Bird with her dulcet little voice!
I was hoping she'd do it again with another of her sayings last night but apparently she wasn't in the mood for a concert. Grim Reaper in the middle of the night is disturbing on some level...
When in the mood to use her soft voice she also says:
Drink your beer!
Be a bird!
Take care!
Grim Reaper !
Which use of her linguistic skills is rather disconcerting!
But her "voice" is soft and lulling and I drifted back to sleep. Richie was sorry he'd missed it but not enough to berate me for not waking him up. Himself likes a good rest.
To avoid confusion - an explanation - her name Lady Bird has nothing to do with the late Mrs. Johnson and her equally dead husband Lyndon.
Rest up today Lady Bird - your fans await you.
