Tweet-tweet! Hi there! I’m The Tic Tic Bird, petite in size but large in concern. Perched upon Ronald’s thick hide, I chirp, I chatter, I sometimes nag — but always because I care. In the vast plains, under wide skies, I keep watch, offer encouragement, remind Ronald of kindness, of gentleness, of what others feel.

Though I am small, I believe small voices can echo big truths. When Ronald is stubborn, when he breaks a boulder or stomps too roughly, I chirp soft corrections. When he smiles, warms to someone, helps someone — I chirp pride. When danger frightens, I chirp alarm, but also comfort.

Come fly with me across grasslands, ride on a rhino’s back, hear the earth tremble, feel rain on leaves. I’ll be close, chirping when things wobble, reminding of compassion. Because being small doesn’t mean being silent. I believe hearts are built not only by strength but by gentle voice in the hush.
