Flying, Fluttering, Perching and Pecking at My Humans

And so as Birdie grows and develops so does Birdie's sense of self confidence, natural instinct of investigation and sparrow curiosity!

Birdie's newest adventures include fly-overs from the cage to various landing sites in the kitchen and family room. Birdie is just so smart and so fascinating to watch! We just marvel at his healthy growth and development from an abandoned and injured newborn to a full fledged confidently natural flying adolescent sparrow... just flitting and flying around our house, as if it's just the most natural thing for himher to be doing! (Little does Birdie know, this is the most "unnatural wild bird" behavior!)

At this point in hisher explorations, Birdie stays close to hisher "comfort zone", flying in close proximity to things near and around the cage. As a result, when we are hanging at the kitchen table, Birdie now freely joins us, flying over us and deciding whom to perch on (and subsequently, poop on)!

Above, Birdie's enjoying me as the perch .... 

and soon discovering shimmery post earrings are great fun to peck at!
Below, is evidence of a well-fed Birdie...lol
check out Birdie's signature on my shoulder!

 Here's a hilarious video of Birdie pecking at my earrings! It's super funny, but actually that little sparrow beak is really powerful and sharp now! I can really see now how bird beaks are a natural "weapon" in the wild! Sorry the video is tilted, I can't figure out how to set it up straight... but you'll still crack up at me being attacked by "sweet innocent baby Birdie" !!!
