Huge Jolly Ball

I decided that Jazz needed a jolly ball because his collection of 1,476,321,908 toys seemed lacking so off to the internet I went. However the prices on premade balls in the appropriate size were prohibitive

I found a nekkid 14" ball on ebay and a week later was unpacking it excitedly.
Jazz took one look at the HUGE ball as it came out of its shipping box, screamed and flew off down the hall as fast as his little wings could take him

The next several days found me on the floor in the living room making excited noises at said Jolly Ball while Jazz turned his back to me, and pretended we were not in the same room.

This weekend, I handed my DH the power drill, and started stringing toys. Jazz could not resist the lure of new toys to destroy. I put a small fleece
blanket in the bottom, and added a binky inside plus all the toys strung outside. He has spent hours in there playing, The only problem is a 14" Jolly Ball is ginormous. We are thinking of putting on an addition to house this, or subletting rooms in it to other birdies.

Blossom and Echo have a standing invtation - they could probably all fit in there at the
same time!
