Last Saturday, my Mum and Stepdad came to see me.
We went out to look at the birds, Pull up some weeds to feed the finches, Look at who has mated with who in the avairy, and what their kids look like.
Proff was wandering the yard for the first time in ages. He kept swapping between my mums shoulder for mine. My stepdad was drowning mice (see other thread).
On one of his visits to my shoulder, I went to look at the budgies, thru the front of the avairy. Debbie was coming out of the avairy and as we walked past each other, Proffesor put his plan into action
He leaped about 1.5 metres onto Debbies shoulder/back, landing Beak 1st, then feet next. Once he got his balance, he let his feet drop, so he was hanging off her shoulder, beak only,twisting his head.
Debbie:GET HIM OFF ME!!!!!!
I had reached over and put my wrist under his hanging feet, and he refused to take a step up, thus avoiding my wrist for another 5 seconds. He stepped and broke off the beak attack , I stepped back out of reach.
Proffesor: DEBBIE!!DEBBIE!!
He spent the rest of day in his cage, watching the action, instead of enjoying it wit us.
I think he thought it was a fair swap.
Coz Debbie was wearing a shirt, He did not break the skin. He left 2 indents, and two bruises in the same spots, to remember him by
I write this story only coz my dear wife says I only talk about the good things they do.
I am sure I said publicly in the past, THe Proffesor is not keen on Debbie.
Its not always fun in the land of OZ.
