| Little Stevie Wonder
Little Stevie Wonder was hatched on May 25, 2007 at Shady Pines Aviary. As you can see, he was hatched without eyes. Stevie is developing like any other Caique chick, and, I think perfect every which way! Today is August 5, 2007 and Stevie will be arriving at his forever home from Shady Pines Aviary within a week or two. Please check back for updates and a pictorial essay on his life when he arrives at his forever home.
Little Stevie the Wonder Caique arrived Friday, August 17, 2007! He is pure joy!!

25 Kiri all egg-cited that Stevie is coming
| 26 The morning of August 17, 2007 and Stevie is all packed and ready to head out to the airport
| 27 Stevie is flying Continental into Newark, NJ. This is the only pet friendly Airline that has a direct, non-stop flight into EWR. His flight should take approximately 3 hours
| 28 Stevie checking out his Monkey Biscuits. If you enlarge the photos, you can see the large assortment of food Momma Gloria has put into his travel crate
| 29 All kinds of moist and juicy fruit in case Stevie gets thirsty.
| 30 Yummy! Stevie thinking about doing some pre-flight nibbling
| 31 Stevie has his own First Class Cabin!
| 32 Stevie travelling to the airport. Momma Gloria said he was very mad about having his kennel closed. He had some Caique tantrums. They called me en-route and I got to hear him melodically sing his name!
| 33 The Continental Quick Pak office. Stevie will be traveling 'counter' to 'counter'.
| 34 Stevie waiting to be carried to the plane
| 35 Momma Gloria checking one last time before he embarks on his journey
| 36 Ain't he cute??? Momma Gloria got the same strange looks from people in the terminal as I did for taking photos.
| 37 Outside Continental Airlines at the Newark Airport. Every person who was carrying a crate had a huge smile on their face
| 38 Here is Stevie sitting all by his lonesome in the terminal. All the dogs were in the other corner
| 39 Checking my credentials against their records before allowing me to go to Stevie's carrier
| 40 Everyone who was in the terminal looked at me like I was a 'nut' case for taking pictures. Even the attendants, until I told them I was taking the pictures for Stevie's photo album.
| 41 Stevie's beautiful Avian Adventure Cage. This is the bottom tier of their Triple Vista Cage. Momma Gloria made the arrangements with her sales rep at Avian Adventure to have them sell me just one tier. This is the perfect cage for any Caique because it is longer than it is tall and very, very roomy!
| 42 Howie the Caique is watching me lay on my bed to take the photo of Stevie's cage
| 43 Side view of Stevie's cage
| 44 And here he is! So sweet and cuddly! We talked the whole way home. We did not get back from the airport until after 7 PM. Traffic was horrendous and we got hit by heavy rain and thunder & lightening. Visibility was so bad that on the NJ TPKE traffic slowed down to 20 miles an hour. Stevie had breakfast at Momma Gloria's at 9 AM, boarded the plane in Florida, arrived at Newark after 2 PM. He and I left the Airport at 3:35. Poor baby was very hungry and ate 10 cc's of formula for me.
| 45 As I am uploading and updating Stevie's album, it is 11:30 PM. I just tip toed into the bedroom and Stevie is fast asleep on his swing
| 46
| 47 Stevie has such a sweet aura and is very trusting. No other words to describe it. He has that 'something special' quietness about him.
| 48 Thank you Momma Gloria and Daddy Ron for believing in Stevie and, for sending him to my home and heart. You have done tremendous job with Stevie. Which one of you named him?
