So for the past few days, we've been bird-sitting a bird named Sunny Delight (aka Sunny, Sunny D, Sunny Boo Boo, Boo, Girlie, etc.). So I've been spending some real solid quality time with her over the past few days, and wanted to share my "findings" with y'all. Ohhhh and just a disclaimer, I don't know if Sunny is a girl or boy, so I'll just pretend she's a girl. Sawwy 'bout that...
First, I thought I should show you a picture so you can make a little movie in your head about her. It'll be helpful :)
I have to be honest here and say that I'm not exactly what you would call pro-bird(?). I'm not much for squawks or feathers or large beaks. Even those eyes creep me out. I'm more of a dog person. I can't even say that I'm getting used to her, and it has been over a week. I try and keep my distance. As in behind the cage and on the couch. Plus, she poops a lot. Well, I'm not here to complain, so let's just move on.
So for the first few days, she was a little nervous. More like shaking nervous. I felt soo bad for her. I mean I wouldn't want to be torn away from my mommy either. I don't know if she even thinks that she'll go back at all. Ahhhhh don't make my cry Sunny!!!!!!!
Okay so fun fact number one about this little fellow. Shelikes LOVES Mini Wheats (or anything like them). That's about the only thing we have in common, except for the whole One Direction thing. I'll tell you about that in a sec. So aside from her regular diet of nuts and seeds and who knows what else, she gets those. It's really fun to watch her sit there and break into one. I have a picture or two (or three) of that right about....here....
So yes, Sunny is a Directioner too. We're listening to them right now :). Yeah, it never ends. The first day she stayed with us, I was attempting to complete my homework and she was sitting beside me in her cage. I put on some music and she crawled up on the cage close to me. Every once and a while she would tilt her head a little and shift around a bit. I'm not too good at reading bird signals, but I'm pretty sure that she liked it.
She stays out here in my man cave/sunroom with me most of the time. I'm usually on the computer or doing homework or something. I feel bad if she's in here by herself, so I try to provide some happiness. I do what I can. Oh, and did I mention that this room is not exactly temperature controlled? So when I get up in the morning I have to make sure she's warm enough. But other than that, she's got the best room in the house. Very scenic.
I'll leave you with some pictures of her in her "natural habitat"- more or less. Also, I'll link her (well, actually my) favorite song below. I mean a post wouldn't be complete without a little song to cheer you up!
So thanks for taking time out of your day to catch up with me and Boo. Tell me if you enjoyed this little entry, and I hope you have a great day my lovelies!
Much Love,
