Hello Blogville, it's your one and only gossip bunny with all the latest news from my corner of the world. They say Time flies when you're Having Fun.... but the truth is time flies even when you're not. It flies when the weather is grim and you can't get out to do anything and that my friends is just boring. So before mum took down Christmas we had a bit of this....
We had that for a couple of days....That was our winter and then it rained and rained and rained...well you get the gist of it. So after mum took down Christmas she started refurbing the kitchen cabinets and then this happened....
Baby the Jackdaw happened. He started by gradually losing his tail but he could still fly and then we had some bad storms which ended up damaging his feathers on one wing to the point that he couldn't fly so with the help of our friend we caught him in a neighbours garden and he took up residence in a cage our shed...But he hated the cage and was going stir crazy. Mum knew he needed more space so she converted this part of the garden and built this....
A temporary aviary for Baby....
and today Baby was moved to his new but temporary aviary till he grows out his new feathers...
Is Baby happy about being in the aviary? Well not 100% but he's not going stir crazy and doing more damage to his feathers either. He's been exploring the network of branches and perches that mum put in there for him to get about and he's found some news of his own in the bay tree and the little apple tree and a little ledge above the door and then got himself stuck so shouted to mum for help to get him back down which she did. I am sure over the next few days he will work it out for himself how to get down from those places on his own, its a regular jungle gym in there for him. So in 3 or 4 months he should regrow new feathers and be back to flying again and then flying about with his pals again.
well that's all for now
xoxo Little Miss Titch
