He was a big parakeet in a tiny cage that forced his body into a stoop. His water dish was dry and his food bowl was empty. A family had moved and left him behind, alone in an empty house. I transferred him to the biggest habitat I could find and filled it with parakeet toys: mirrors, balls, bells, chewing sticks. I named him Re for rebirth. Then one day I saw that he had straightened his body. He stood tall, gripping his perch with new strength. His green feathers shone, and his eyes were bright. Re's rebirth had begun.
它是一隻被關在小籠子裏的大鸚鵡，所以不得不彎着身子。它的水盤子是乾的，他的食碗是空的。一戶人家搬走了，把它獨自丟在空房子裏。我把轉移到我能找到的最大的鳥窩，給它買了鸚鵡玩具：有鏡子、球、鈴鐺、咀嚼棒。我給它起名叫Re,意味着重生。後來有一天，我看到它挺直了身子。它站得很高，充滿力量的緊握這棲木。它綠色的羽毛閃閃發光，眼睛明亮。Re的重生開始了。
