Show off your house ducks!

No, she'll eat, it just takes ten times as long because she has to periscope at it and give it the side-eye for a while before she decides that it's safe. This is a new thing, up until yesterday she didn't have this reaction. And last night I was up at 4:00 because she was flipping out at the hum of my air purifier. Which has been constantly running since she came home. And only now has she noticed it.

/facepalm
Poor little child bird. I wonder what is going on with her. I hope she snaps out of the periscope and side eye thing with food. As to the hum noise, what did she do to indicate it was bothering her?

Yeah they like to fly down to the pond and dip their bellies in the water.... Its really funny to watch. They are ringneck or laughing doves so they make sounds that sound like someone laughing so its hilarious to see them sit on a tree in the aviary and watch the ducks and it looks like they are laughing at the ducks and their silly behavior.
Aaaw, I'd love to hear them. They sound so sweet. And they prolly are laughing at the ducks' silly behavior. How many emus are you hatching?

I found a robin fledgling in the aviary today.... It's parents were freaking out so I went to check it out and the robin fledgling had jumped over the metal and through the wire but the parents couldn't get through. I took it out and put it in some Lilacs close to the aviary. Is there something more I should do?

She had her head straight up and was looking around trying to find whatever it was that was freaking her out, and making "mommy, where are you" trill sounds. She didn't stop when I held her, so I had to scramble to figure out what the heck it was that was bothering her, and sure enough, when I turned off the air purifier she calmed right down.

Wait, three eggs? Did you get more? I know you picked up one after you lost the first two, but I didn't know you had three!

Your property is beautiful. I am on my way to move into your aviary. Just throw me some food and water and I will be happy. Plus I can act silly around your birds and squeeze them.

Will you keep your emus? Are they gonna free range on that lawn area? I think it is so cool the diversity of burd you keep.
