My Warrior Pigeon Shows A Concerned Side

[phyll]

For the last three weeks, I've been sick with the flu. This is the first time I've been sick since Jesse has been with us.

One day last week, I felt really bad & couldn't get out of bed.
From the bedroom, I could hear Jesse flying & flying in the living & dining rooms.

Sometimes, when I am taking a little too long finishing my prayers, Jesse will fly into the bedroom, go to the dresser, then coo & dance to his "mirror" mate. He entertains himself until I am ready to get up.
On those days, the bedroom is lit, but last week, it was dark.

After hearing Jess fly & fly, there was silence.
Usually, I can hear him flying, in his cage or simply walking around.
I decided I HAD to get up to feed & check on him.

When I turned my head, there was Jesse! He was on the bed right next to my pillow. His head was cocked, with one eye intently looking at me. I was very surprised to see him, especially because the bedroom was dark.

I was touched by Jesse's show of concern for me. Bob, on the other hand, had to say that Jesse came to get me because he wanted me to feed him.

Jesse WAS concerned about me, right guys?

Absolutely!!! You are part of his flock and he obviously takes his responsibilities very seriously. Good job, Jesse!

Of course he was. He knows your routine and is in sync w/you and knew that you weren't as responsive to him as well. I think he knew something was up for you and that you were out of 'sorts'.

Yes Phyll. You are his everything!

Hi Phyll,

How wonderful that Jesse came to check on you like that I do believe that animals sense subtle differences and know when things are "amiss". What a little darling he is

Phyl,

I am glad you are feeling better! I'm sure that it was Jesse's nursing skills that brought you around.

I'm absolutely sure that Jesse was out of his mind with worry. He came to check on you to make sure you were okay. Gotta love that Warrior pigeon...

[Hillybean]

That's so sweet . He must be very taken with you.

I think, I'd find it kinda a freaky at first. I already go to bed with a dog looking at me in the face (the newest member of the family- a Shi-tzu pup), to wake up to bird in my face... I don't know .

I already wake up to my cooing alarm clock with feet, my MP .

Phyll, Jesse loves you and when you weren't feeling well, he wanted to check on you. I do hope you're feeling lots better. You need to let us know these things. As many prayers as you say for all of us, we could return the favor.

I AGREE!

LOVE, HUGS AND SCRITCHES TO YOU ALL (you can give the scritches to Jesse!). Bless his heart, he was just "checkin'" to make sure you were OK!!

Thanks, everyone, I knew my Jesse was concerned.

Thanks, Maggie, that means a lot.
I've been sick for almost four weeks. Today wasn't so bad, so I'm on the road to recovery.

Bob has been sick for two weeks, so I would really appreciate you guys saying a prayer for him. Thanks.
