kamara

I can hardly believe it! It feels like only yesterday she came home. But, as of today, it has been one entire year since Kamara joined the hrafn flock! And, since her true birthdate is unknown, today we will also be celebrating her birthday! :greet6: She has come so incredibly far in such a...

My poor little Mars Bar. When Kamara was picked up by peace officers and brought to the Humane Society, she was immediately clipped. They didn't know any better, and clip every bird for the sake of 'safety'. We know that before that Kamara was able to fly, and very well, because she was flying...

...but boy oh boy, do they ever have their moments. :rolleyes: I closed the upper door of Kamara's cage so that I could wipe off the usual poopy mess she makes of it every day, and she climbed all the way down the side of her cage, went in through the large lower door, climbed up to the door...

Because of Kamara's damaged feet, and because she's become a free-range birdie who almost never has her door shut, I've been making an active effort to ensure that the room she's in is completely safe for her. Padded floors in case of falls, anything she can get her head stuck in either removed...

She's never, ever said it before! She's always saying everyone else's names and talking to them, but I've never once heard her say either Kamara or Mara, and she just said both in my voice, clear as day! I don't know why, but I'm gonna cry I'm so happy. It's like she's accepted her name! She's...

Kamara recently became very anxious and afraid of her door being left open, and hasn't been coming out at all since. But just now I opened her doors to rotate some toys, and she clambered out to the top of her cage! So proud of my grey chicken! She has so many fears but she's so brave.

For some absolutely inexplicable reason, though it is half past one in the morning, some random teenager was just standing out on the street for a good twenty minutes rapping on a snare drum like he was on a military drumline. :arghh: Poor Taco woke up a few minutes ago and started to protest...
