Description
About 6 years ago, my late wife and I split up for a bit. During that time she gave away our two parrots, Yogi, a 15 year old blue-fronted Amazon and Raj, a lilac-crowned Amazon. She thought that they were too much for her to handle. She gave them to a lady in Edgewood or Santa Fe who, at one time, ran a parrot sanctuary, but had no birds.
I had raised Yogi since he was a chick, hand feeding him until he was almost two years old. He bonded to me and I to him. He'd spend hours with me every day, grooming my eyelashes while I'd scratch his belly. Raj was given to me by a co-worker when I helped her find her lost mini-macaw. As close as Yogi was to me, Raj just hated me and would take a running leap at me just to bite me. I still loved him and understood that he'd had a rough life and tried to bring him back around to me.
My wife and I got back together shortly after she gave them away and I've missed our birds terribly since. She was murdered at our home 3 years ago and I don't have any living thing to remember her by. I thought if there was any chance that Yogi and Raj were still around the area and if their new owner wanted to sell or somehow get them back to me, I'd be forever appreciative. I'm an old guy and would love to have them back, them helping me remember her while I take care of them. Thank you for reading this. God bless.
