The Approach of Winter...
Posted 10-24-2009 at 02:53 PM by NotEnoughTime
It is the time of year where I let Gari's flights grow out.
The beautiful cobalt blue primary flights are peaking through her wings. And she's re-learning that she can climb and turn. What a wonderful time she's having! So far only one of the primaries on each wing has grown out - but the change in her flight ability is amazing. As a few more feathers moult out I am expecting here flight skillz to become even more amazing. Last year we were building 3D obstacle courses for her to navigate in the house.
Lately we've been watching a TV dorama (a Japanese TV series). Television isn't really a big thing for us - but we do watch the odd movie, TV news, and - when possible - a dorama or two. Gari joins my wife and I for the hour-long show each evening. She sits in the warm spot between us as the evening winds down for her. Occassionally she asks for a scritch - but most of the time she just "hunkers down" and simply, and happily, grinds her beak.
Our evenings are (at least for these eleven episodes) made up of the entire family (two dogs, a cat, a bird and a couple of humans) all cuddled together in the cool fall evenings - watching a TV dorama...
Winter is approaching... This evening activity will likely become more common...
I think we are all looking forward to this...
