the bird of our dreams

in about 2007, our neighbours Teresa and Glyn were going away for a holiday. they wanted us to take care of their magpie. so after school when i came home, we had a pet magpie. we looked after her for about 2 weeks. when Teresa and Glyn came back, they said we could keep her, so we did. she was a great bird and always played with us. we decided to name her Stumpy. it was nearly christmas, so we went away to our grandmas beach house, in mornington. Stumpy had her own pot that she sat on, and she sat on the edge of the pond. Stumpy was the best bird ever! christmas came and Stumpy was still with us. But one morning, sadly, Stumpy drowned in the pond. we were all very sad. we buried her in the backyard and went home that day. we will never forget Stumpy, and how Stumpy was the bird of our dream!
