Yellow Bird, Where Have You Gone?

WHERE IS MY YELLOW SIBLING?
Yellow Bird, where are you?
YELLOW BIRD IN OUR DOGWOOD
Last blog Liam was looking AT a possible new sibling. If you missed and want to check it out here is the link, then scroll up for this week's
In today's follow up blog Liam is looking FOR his possible sibling.
HE ALWAYS EATS RIGHT HERE
I GUESS I CAN WAIT
Thank you for your votes and for your interest in YB. After last post and receiving your votes, which were mostly in favor of capturing YB (Yellow Bird) we set out to do just that. But YB has not been back. 

Where are you YB?
What happened YB?
I tweeted the link that day. August 11. Thought Twitter is only for humans. Are birds listening to tweets? Did YB take off as a result?  Screenshot of my Thursday August 11th tweet
And since that week Yellow Bird has not returned to our yard. Have there been sightings?
Maybe.
Paul, Liam and I are out for a walk along the Tully Park border. I think I see YB. I see a flash of yellow "Yellow Bird," I yell. The boys look up. Nothing. No yellow. No movement. Stillness in the trees. Sun glancing off a flying leaf? They light up yellow for a moment. And then flip dark.
Maybe.
No YB

I am outside in the backyard. I hear the evocative 'keet cheep. YB!  I circle the yard. I hear it again. Oh, I get it. The window is open. It is Kristin.
KRISTIN TALKS
She talks to the outdoor birds...and she is loud.
No YB.

Now a few weeks have passed since the last YB visit.

My tweet to Yellow Bird
Hope to see you before the cold. And if not our wish is that you have been captured and are back at home.
Or your outside life is free and safe and you are heading south

For now Liam has his wolf sibling to groom and cuddle
LIAM HAS HIS STANDBY SIBLING
Woof Woof
