I am so very, very sorry for your loss. I'm new to The Forum, won't get my baby Tag until mid-November, so I have no experience with parrots and I don't know you or your relationship to others in this forum family, but I do understand why you could get a new friend to soothe the loss of an old friend. I have been spending my time in the greyforums gaining all the free knowledge everyone so generously shares in this website. I don't think anyone was really angry at you, but at the situation and the fear that it could happen to one of them. Your loss has taught me a valuable lesson and for that I can only thank you. I hope Max's comes home.
