Thank you all for your suggestions on this blog and private emails. We combined the recommendations (including the Santa Hats) to come up with this final verse…

Here we come a-squawkin’
Among the feathered flock
Here we come a-waddling
and flying down the block.

Love and joy come to you,
And to all your parrots, too,
And our chirps and trills and screams and yells,
Mean Happy New Year,
And we wish you a Happy New Year!

When I offered parrot US postage stamps, I ordered them from Zazzle.

Now Zazzle offers 3 sizes of stamps. You need to order a sheet, but you can choose small, medium and large. Yes, it will represent the current $0.44 (as well as other denominations) stamp.

All the designs from the original Scarlet’s Feathers nest, can be yours through our zazzle nest.

Make this years holiday cards stand out with your favorite feathered species featured on your envelopes!

Fill your mug with something warm to drink. Great for those cold days.

Remember, no coffee, tea, or hot chocolate for your feathered one.

Available at our Zazzle nest!

Are you going to someone’s house for Thanksgiving? Is a person missing the event?

My mother used to send each of her children a Thanksgiving Card with $20 towards the turkey they were responsible for cooking that year (we took turns).

Scarlet’s Feathers has Thanksgiving cards that you can send. Just visit us at Zazzle.com/scarletsfeathers. Order early! Zazzle takes time to print and send cards to you.

Click on the card image to order this specific card.

Here is another card design for the holidays. Vote for the one you like best. Write-in’s are accepted too.

I need your help! My head is just not working the way it usually does this time of year.

I designed the following greeting card but need help with the verse.

Please post your comments on what you would change on the card and verse.

A Happy New Year,

And we send you a Happy New Year.

If so … might I recommend an apron with your species.

Email me and I’ll create an apron with your species (from our library of parrot pictures).

Otherwise, pick from our selection already available on Zazzle.com/scarletsfeathers

Well…it’s that time of year again. Time for me to design the Holiday cards in time for you to order, address, and send.

Every Spring, Toastmasters International holds a speech contest. You may speak about anything for 5-7 minutes. For this particular contest, inspirational is the most common. Well, I made it up to the fourth level (District) to place 3rd. That’s number 3 out of about 3,500 people.

Why am I talking about this here? The inspirational story was about the journey of the rise and fall of Scarlet’s Feathers…what I felt and remembering all that I learned that could be applied to my next venture. Yes, the speech ended on a very positive note that inspired the audience (so I was told).

Well, this summer I’ve had:

  • A groundhog under my deck give birth to 3 babies.
  • A opossom walk across my backyard with 6 babies attached.
  • A raccoon decide to live between the roof and porch ceiling while raising its young!

OK, and that doesn’t count the skunks that tried to fight with the groundhogs and left (leaving THE smell behind).

If I lived in the country, I would understand. If I lived in or near a forest, I would understand. I LIVE IN the busy Suburbs! Well, at least Scarlet has enjoyed watching all of the activity.

In my efforts to scare away the raccoon, I found this website by the humane society that might be of interest to you.
