Raining Seashells....

December 29th, 2007

I was sittin here reading email/surfing early, slept in on a nice Saturday, family asleep and then out of the blue....BWOOOOOOOKKKKKKK at 7:30 am???So, I leave it alone a few minutes and she persists. Still covered and all. I go in there, uncover, talk a lil, give her fresh food...she didn't want it. She wanted OUT! haha. The sun was bright this morning and it's been overcast the past few days. It was that. I mean, it's a beautiful morning!I'm down with it, get the hand perch, transfer her to my hand and we start an early day. Currently, she's sittin on top of my rolltop, IN a basket of shells, eatin some, diggin around, throwin in the floor, chewin a Christmas card..just bein a bird. This is forraging at it's best. LOL. I guess I could hide her a peanut in there. Then it'd sure be a mess.I gotta find out bout those seashells. They're washed and all. But she digs around in em, takes a few out, grinds on em, then drops em. Then some she just picks out and throws to the side like she's on a treasure hunt. She loves em, I mean it's like a kid in a toybox. I'll ask the avian vet. Don't we let our birds do things we'd not let our kids do???


The aftermath....this is just on the top of the desk. They were showering down onto the keyboard, floor...me!
