Tiel Chat and Heads Over Tiels came into existence. It's hard to believe it's been 24 years. Seems like yesterday, and yet so long ago.

We may not be the bustling message board that once was, but we are still here,providing care and love to all who come here.

This board would not exist without the people who post here. Thank you all who are here, and thank you all who have come before, for 24 years of care, love, advice, laughter, and compassion in times of sorrow. Happy Anniversary Tiel Chat!

I think I joined 20 years ago when I got Daffy. Pat Kellogg told me about this group.

I remember her. I didn't join the first year. I can't remember when. SOmeone from another place and I started a Tiel and Budgie board set, but she disappeared, so I deleted her Tiel board, and finally dropped my budgie board. I had joined before I dropped my budgie board, and Satibape linked to it, as a kindness. I don't remember the year. Probably 02 or 03

I started posting in 2005 or so. It wouldn't be possible to share, get advice, be comforted in times of grief, be together if seesthru didn't keep it going. We appreciate and love you seesthru!

Aww, thank you Cathy. I remember Kay Utterbug wanting the board to stay open after all the advisors moved on I agreed,in partnership with her. When she left I thought she'd gotten angry about something and left. But, in hindsight, I believe it was her illness and brain injury, because it wasn't like her to do that.

I stay on, because I do like it here, and I feel there is still a need for places like this.

This is a good place. We may not know all the answers, but we can give a shoulder to lean on, and help people look things up! Between all of us, there's hope.

It really was. This place existed before FAcebook, Twitter, any of those places.

I love this board..it is such an informant and supportive place for us bird lovers. I started on the other board where I still remember Sly..do others here remember her?..Being able to come here when they shut down was a blessing. When I have had to deal with the loss of one of my beloved feathered friends it was always such a huge comfort knowing I was talking to others who really understood. Thank you seethru and all the wonderful members on this board.

I wasn't on the other board but I imagine you really missed it when it shut down. I really wish all the bords devoted to birds would have survived.

We are all glad you came here, Nancy and that we could be here for you and you here for us, too!

I used to post on Tiel Talk a lot. I remember Sly, Vivian and Carolyn and all the other moderators. I believe Avian Avenue is still active and there's another one called TalkCockatiels. There's another one that I came across in my travels but I can't remember the name. There are lot of people who don't like posting on Facebook, who prefer boards.
