Charles Kingsley Wentworth was born on July 10, 2009 and passed away on July 31, 2012. He was gentle, loving, and sweet, and never hurt a soul. Even when handled by vets, he never attempted to bite. He was the best bird in the entire world.

Kahlil Gibran on Love
When love beckons to you, follow him,
Though his ways are hard and steep.
And when his wings enfold you yield to him,
Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.
And when he speaks to you believe in him,
Though his voice may shatter your dreams
as the north wind lays waste the garden.
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning.
Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun,
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.
I am so very sorry Sweetheart. This is so hard.
So sorry Coco, Charles shared a beautiful life with you.
I read of you and your flocks loss on AA and I am so sorry for your loss he is resting on gods shoulders telling him what a wonderful life he had with you ,
My husband & I both wish to let you know we are thinking of you. We have followed your ‘Charles stories & photos’ and loved him from afar. He was indeed a very special bird, and loved by people all over the world. So very sorry for this huge loss. Many hugs.
My heart aches for you, Coco. Charles touched the hearts of many – so sweet – so beautiful – so loved. You are in my thoughts. I am so very sorry. Fly free little guy.
