I clearly suffer from SAD. As I was just saying to Billie, I'm thinking of following the example of a friend who sits under the special light she bought for her similarly afflicted parakeet. She claims it works great - except for her irresistible urge to feed seeds to her reflection.
LOL!!

The leaves here are falling like crazy. Seems early to me but I'll take it! I can always tell when the trees are getting "thin" because I can see my neighbors back deck. During the summer when the trees are full and green it provides a barrier to all surrounding houses.

I wasn't aware that animals (parakeets) could have SAD. I wonder if your friend also scoots back and forth and bobs her head up and down when she sees someone she likes?!
