Update On My Two Books

This is to let you know that my Small Exotic Bird Book will be available soon. The Publisher says the text is finalized and photos are currently being situated within each chapter. I expect it to be approximately 8 inches by 11 inches ... not small. Smile. It covers a wide variety of small bird species. Below are the chapter headings to offer enticement.

If You're ProLife
 Like Most of Us Are Who Love Birds

About my other book, the novel CAST ME NOT AWAY, written under the pseudonym Zara Heritage:  In order to advertise and let people know about it, a Go Fund Me page was created solely to enable me (the author) to send out complimentary copies to ProLife organizations encouraging them to share this novel with others. I can buy the books wholesale, but they still cost money, as does the postage to send them. That's the purpose of the Go Fund Me request page.

Peace, Blessings and Thank You!

Baby Bourke Future Color Identification and Banding by Foot Sizes.



Our current two clutches in video. It was taken today. Rosie & Pretty Boy have four babies. Peaches and Stormy have five. Fuchsia's five eggs were infertile, so maybe next time. Our beautiful Lutino, Sunny, hasn't been accepted by any of the three males she's had access to. Still hopeful for her.

Love these wonderful little miracle birds. Peace & Blessings!
