"The Amazing Shubi Bird"

Good afternoon friends,

Here is a new installment of "The Amazing Shubi Bird."

"Shubi chuckled and then asked Cody, "Will you climb to the top of the tree and fly off with me?" Cody did not have a very good sense of humor when someone was joking with him. He only laughed when he told a joke, or kidded around, so he got mad at Shubi and asked, "Do you see wings on me?" Shubi laughed at Cody and said, "I am only joking. Why do you have to be so serious all the time? You are just grumpy, Cody! You are just grumpy!" Shubi seemed to enjoy kidding around with both Cody and Tanner, just to lighten the mood. He was always playful and lively, and would do anything for a laugh. Still, Shubi's friends were not always in the mood for his silliness."

Stay tuned for more excerpts from "The Amazing Shubi Bird".

The Blue Guardian


Good morning friends,

Here is the next installment of "The Amazing Shubi Bird". This is the start of chapter one, titled "The Blue Guardian".

"Shubi the bird, Tanner the rabbit, and Cody the squirrel were all friends in the wild. Although they were once someone's pets, many years ago Tanner and Cody were mistreated and left their homes. Shubi once had a home too, but his little girl grew up and moved far away, so he started a new life in the forest.

One afternoon Shubi jokingly said to Tanner, "Lets go to the top of the tree and fly away!"

Tanner knew he was not a bird and could not fly, so he replied to Shubi, "I do not have wings. If I tried to flywith you, I would get hurt!"


Thats the segment for the day, stayed tuned till next time when the next part is revealed.

"Hello Children! Myname is Sheba. Someone told me that you want to hear about my special friend, Shubi. He became known as the Amazing Shubi Bird because he is unlike any other bird in the world. Sure there are others that can talk, but Shubi is the smartest, funniest, and bravest of them all, as you are about to see.

There are many stories I could tell you about Shubi, but let me first start at the beginning. This is how Shubi and his friends were adopted."

Blog Action Day

Good morning friends,
Today is national blog action day. We are suppose to comment on environmental issues in this world. In taking a course on global ecology I learned of the many foreign countries that do not have laws in place to prtect this environment. Although they are mostly poor countries, some are wealthy. The problem with this, I learned, is that their pollution rises in the air and forms clouds that go on other parts of the world and dump "acid rain" on our country as well as others. Thats my 2 cents worth, what about you?
