Nora Update

Nora has started eating some millet seeds and occasionally does these small flying jumps so I've moved him into a temporary cage.  I say temporary because this is Henry's travel cage and until I make a flight cage it will have to do.  Since Nora is still very young I've left the heat lamp close to the cage but farther from his "nest" than it was before.  As I write this Sweetheart is watching over the finch.  I don't know what I'd do without her.  Lucy would have had him for a snack day one.  However, if you are taking care of a baby bird I do not recommend having a cat guardian unless you are absolutely positive it will not eat the chick.  Nora is a lucky bird to have such a companion.

Baby Finch Update

Baby Finch














Sorry so long on the update!  This morning the baby finch made it's first flight out of the nest.  Well, it was more of a collection of hops. >_<  She/he is so cute.
