It doesn’t matter if you are big or small, tall or short, feathered or (sob) featherless. Some days are just tougher than others. But this is what nature is for.

Cuteness for Comfort with Pearl: Living the Flavorful Life
Life is full of flavors. When you start racking up the years (heck, decades), you start to notice your life has all the flavors, each at different times perhaps, but overall in fairly equal measure. Salty. Bitter. Sour. Savory. And sweet. This means when a flavor arrives that is less preferred, you can remember itContinueContinue reading “Cuteness for Comfort with Pearl: Living the Flavorful Life”
Cuteness for Comfort with Pearl: Going On Line
When you come from a vocal and social flocking species, social distancing just goes against your very feathery grain. In other words, no one ever made any hay by staying six feet away.

Cuteness for Comfort with Pearl: Man(bird) Up
Being the “alpha” man(bird) of a flock means your flock mates are always looking to you for guidance. It just comes with the territory.

Cuteness for Comfort with Pearl: Buckle Up
Life sure can dish out some surprises. Some surprises are quite big and good – like the sudden appearance of an enormous, piping hot, tasty “Grandma’s” waffle the size of your own small feathery body. Some surprises are quite little and scary – so little and so scary, in fact, that the only way toContinueContinue reading “Cuteness for Comfort with Pearl: Buckle Up”
