Shubi finds comfort in the arms of strangers

Good Morning Friends,

It has warmed up a little, but looking for food is getting harder and harder. I'm up on a 5th story stoop looking in the window of a family just sitting down to a family breakfast. The small girl looks out the window and exclaims, "Look at that pwetty birdie at the window". The mom replies, "Yes, that is a birdie and he looks cold". They gently open the door so as to not scare me, but they do not know that I am "The Amazing Shubi Bird". I fly in the window and around the breakfast table, startling all the people in the room. I land on the little girl's shoulder and chirp out, "Hi, my name's Shubi". Everyone is amazed that they have found a talking parakeet. Boy is it nice and warm in here, and that food sure looks good. The little girl senses my apparent hunger and offers me a biscuit, which I accept gladly. "Thank you, precious little one", and she smiles with amazement.

Well, I have to go for now, but come back for the latest developments.

Give the Amazing Shubi For Christmas

Good Morning Friends,

I have a dilemna this, the beginning of the holiday season. I'm used to staying in a warm friendly home, but since I ran away in July, I have ventured far away. So I am looking for a home for the holidays and hopefully someone reading this post will find me. The only problem is I don't know where I'm at but I will be giving out clues in the next few weeks. I'm in a large town with what looks like bricks for a road. The buildings are very tall, but I'm able to fly to the top of them. Find out more about me and my adventures at http://www.shubibroom.com/

See ya soon,

Have a great Thanksgiving

Good Morning Friends,
This Thanksgiving Day I have a lot to be thankful for. Even though I am a small bird far from home and out in the cold, I am thankful for my freedom. In my adventures as "The Amazing Shubi Bird" I wasn't subjected to the cold and as a parakeet, I am used to being in a warm house with loving family, who shower me with gifts. On my travels, I have seen many people who are in trouble that I am unable to help. I ask you today and throughout the holiday season to have some compassion for your neighbor that may not have enough to eat, or a warm place to stay. Heck, why not make it a year long thing. Peace to all.
Your Friend,
Shubi

Amazing Shubi

Good morning friends,

I hope you have enjoyed the preview of the book, "The Amazing Shubi Bird", which is available at http://www.shubibroom.com/ This compilation of original drawings and easy to read text, makes it an interesting read for small children and even teens. As some of you know, I escaped from my owner's cage on July 3rd in Waitsburg, Washington and have been on the lam ever since. I like my freedom, but it puts me at more danger that I am faced with in the book that bears my name. Since it is snowing right now and I am a tropical bird, I need to find a warm place to stay, but I will be journalizing my adventures right here on this blog.

Bye for now, come back soon,

Your friend,

Watch out for that Mountain Lion

Good Morning Friends,
As we return to the adventures of "The Amazing Shubi Bird", Shubi has met Lauren and Jude, two children lost in the woods. Shubi tries to comfort them and assure them that he will help them get back home. But there is danger on the horizon. Lets continue with the story.
Suddenly, they heard a loud, scary growl! Startled, they turned to see what
the noise was, and saw a big, angry mountain lion crouching right behind
them!
Shubi flew away so quickly that the children did not see which way he went.
The children thought Shubi flew away because he was afraid.
They did not know what to do without him. "If only we had wings, too,"
Jude said to Lauren as his voice shook with fear.
"What should we do?" Lauren cried. "The lion can run faster than us and I
don’t think he wants to be our friend!" "GRRRR," growled the mountain
lion, as he came closer and closer to the children.
He walked back and forth in front of them, growling. He angrily flipped his
tail from one side to another as he watched their every move.
Jude and Lauren knew they were in serious trouble. The mountain lion was
not a vegetarian like they were. He was a meat eater, and wanted to eat them!
They both wished that they were home helping their mother with chores,
and doing their schoolwork. They wanted nothing more than to be home!
Suddenly, as the mountain lion was about to pounce on the children, he
was startled by an earth-shaking roar!
The lion was too afraid to look behind him because he just knew it was a huge
bear. A bear much bigger than he! The lion thought he was the one in
serious trouble then, and must run away as fast as he could!
Jude and Lauren could not believe it! Shubi came back to save them!
It was true that Shubi could indeed growl like a bear!
He really was The Amazing Shubi Bird!
Now the children knew that everything would be just fine.
If Shubi could protect them from a lion, he could
surely help them find their way back home.
The children were so relieved that Shubi had saved them.
They watched Shubi chase the scared lion far away.
It was the funniest thing they had ever seen!
The lion ran very fast and Shubi flew just as fast right behind him,
roaring all the way.
Shubi loved any chance he got to pretend to be a bear. He giggled between
every roar. Finally, he decided that he should get back to the children.
Flying around in a big circle, Shubi turned back to the children. Jude and
Lauren were still laughing as they waited for his return.
Shubi will continue to bring you updates when he has a chance, but in the meantime check back for future developments.

Shubi meets Jude

Good Morning Friends,
As we continue our story from "The Amazing Shubi Bird" Shubi has met up with Lauren in the woods where her and her brother Jude are lost. In this segment Shubi introduces himself to Jude.
Shubi flew to the little boy to talk to him. "Hi Jude," Shubi said, as he landed
on the top of his hat. It took Jude a minute to realize that a bird was talking to him. "Wow!" Jude said with excitement. "Where did you
come from?" "My name is Shubi. Your sister told me that you two are lost. I’m going to help you get back home."
"How are you going to do that?"
Jude asked. "And, why am I talking to a bird? I must be dreaming." Jude
mumbled.

Shubi replied, "No, Jude, you are not
dreaming. I am a real, talking bird. I can help you get home by finding help and
telling them where you are. That’s why they call me The Amazing Shubi Bird."

Well, that's all for today. Stay tuned for the next segment of "The Amazing Shubi Bird"

Shubi meets Lauren

Good morning friends,

As we continue our preview of the book "The Amazing Shubi Bird", Shubi sees two kids lost in the woods. He first sees Lauren, and flies up to her and lands on her shoulder. Here's what happens next.

While Cody and Tanner were plotting their scheme, Shubi flew as fast as he
could and landed on the little girl’s shoulder. He told the little girl, "My name
is Shubi. What is your name?"
"I’ve never heard of a bird that can talk!" The little girl giggled and then
replied, "My name is Lauren. My brother Jude and I are lost."
Shubi smiled and said, "Nice to meet you Lauren. You have never heard a bird
talk before? All animals can talk, but most do not because they are shy, and
no one takes the time to listen. I’m not shy though I talk all the time, whether
someone is listening or not!"

Thats it for today. Keep checking back for the next segment featuring my adventures.

Your friend,

Shubi

No laughing matter

Good morning friends,

This morning Shubi and the gang see two lost children in the woods. They form a plan of action.

Meanwhile, at the top of the tree, Shubi was surprised to see two
children, in the forest, all alone. He shouted, "Children are not supposed to
be out here without their parents!"
Tanner and Cody both agreed. Tanner warned, "Children are not
supposed to be out here because they throw rocks at us and try to trap us."
Cody nodded his head and agreed, "Yeah, and when they catch you they
pull your hair." Cody started laughing and laughing at his joke because hair is
another word for rabbit, spelled "hare."
Cody laughed so hard that he couldn’t even stand up anymore, and rolled on
the ground laughing and kicking his feet.
"I don’t get it," Tanner thought, as he shook his head while watching Cody
savor his joke.

Stay tuned for future developments

Your friend,

"The Blue Guardian" cont.

Good morning friends,

Shubi here; I hope you all are enjoying the snippets from "The Amazing Shubi Bird". Today we are continuing the story with Tanner, Cody, and Shubi in the woods.

Tanner and Cody watched Shubi fly to the top of the tree, flapping his wings
very fast as his body floated to the top branch.
Tanner shouted "Wow! I do wish I could do that. I would have so much
fun if I could fly like Shubi!" Grumpy Cody said, "It’s just not
normal. I would not want to do that even if I could!"
"Boy, Shubi is right," Tanner said to Cody. "You are grumpy."
Cody snarled at Tanner and told him that he would be grumpy too if he
was attacked by Hermit Harry’s big mean birdie.
"Well, you shouldn’t have snuck into his cage to run off with his treats!"
Tanner scolded.

Stay tuned next time for more adventures of Shubi and friends.

Your friend,

Shubi
