Feathers, Feathers and oh so many more Feathers

An ideal day for the average teenager might be going to a party or spending the day with their boyfriend/girlfriend, I guess you can say that my friends and I aren't the average teenager. Today, myself as well as Jay Lion and Kingsley decided to explore Sparks by wandering around various pet stores in search of entertainment. What did we find as the most entertaining? Well that would be the abundance of birds and parrots we found. I think I made Kingsley become a bird enthusiast during our great adventure. The parakeets were especially engrossing due to their vibrant colors and misshaped clipped wings.

Now rewind, earlier this same day, before the brilliant idea of exploring the pet stores took place, we were hanging out with my own birds: Molly or as Kingsley and Jay Lion call her "Grudge Bird" (only because she refuses to accept them as "friends"), and Brandy the one Kingsley especially adores. Both of my birds are very timid and therefore don't accept strangers right away. I like to think I taught them to not speak to strangers (bird version, of course) quite successfully. Molly even went as far as protecting herself from Kingsley by laying siege on her hand when offered a deadly Honey Nut Cheerio, no blood was bled in this ill-fated battle.  I know this won't be the last battle fought between the two, but I have great confidence that Kingsley and maybe even Jay Lion will earn her trust and possibly become friends as well.
