Can't wait to see the photos!
I love al tis "stuff" about the birds!
Yeah, nothing is "happenstance" on this journey.....or on this magical site! Karen, the fact that readng Amanda's post made you more aware of your recent "special bird" sighting is so relective of the zillions of ways this site' not only keeps us all connected, ut forever keeps us connected to ourSpirit Angels.
They are here with us all the time.....sometimes it's through a feeling, or a memory, of course dreams, or a sound, a smell or a wonderful visual like your birds! I think our Spirit Angels manifest their energy into visuals when we need it most and they wantto make it real clear.....I'm herer!!
Maybe we could start a thread on the various ways our loved ones have made their presence known to us...human beings and animal beings.
Maybe that could be it... "Ways our Spirit Angels" have made their presence known to us"................or ..."...ways they've stayed connected to us."
And Jim's saying, "For the love of dog, trijunct....never mind.....can't thinkof the word......but it means, "Keep the title short!"
Hugs to all!

Amanda, I haven't been in here for a while. I remember I was always so impressed of your amazing Porthos! What a beautiful dog! I can imagine when a year has gone since your loss it's a hard feeling. I lost my Penny almost 8 months ago now. It still is hard and I still cry every now and then, but my new bullmastiff Bellis (8 months) gives me so much joy and love and of course Wilbur as well. It's so beautiful to see the soul in a bird or another animal. The souls of the ones we've lost really keep on living. We have a TV-show here in Sweden with artists that do their own version of each others songs and they talk about what happend in their lives and so on, and one guy's best friend died in his arms, and when one of the other artists was singing his song about that friend, a butterfly flew in front of his face. It was really emotional!
I will think of you and Porthos and wish you all the best!
Gunilla, Wilbur, Bellis and angel Penny

Wow. Amanda asked us to put this photo up. It's the cockatoo that's been showing up:
"I have attached some photos of the gorgeous cockatoo that has been visiting us here at our new house! he really does remind me of my Porthos!"

That's a beautiful vision and it "says" so much. Porthos's enrgy soaring through the winds within that lovely bird's soul. Clearly is checking on you and making hi self very "visible".
Thank you for sharing this lovely way Pothos is staying connected. We feel his presence always.
GUNILA, thank you for sharing the lovely way the never ending life affirming connection showed up through the butterfly. Very nice.
Love,
Sally and Happy Hannah
