Massive Minor

You can really tell when 'Mini' Minor is hungry or not. Compare the below to the feeding film from thirteen days ago! It's a bit fuzzy but you get the picture.




In between food, she practises the 'attacking' movements. She REALLY isn't hungry in this movie. Note the change in sounds she makes. She has a very different voice now! She also likes scratching in a box of leaves and grass where we hide worms for her to find.




Mini is NOT mini anymore. She is massive and not even a minor ... hehhehheee ....

Oh my, did I miss this much? It's amazing seeing her transformation.

Wow, She sure has grown. While I was playing the video, my dog, Winston ran over to my computer with his ears up looking all over for that little birdie, very funny!

Aggressive little shits when they grow up aren't they. I'm amazed at behaviour that is obviously genetic and not taught. Won't be long now and she'll be fighting and all a flutter with the other mynas. It's a shame they're such a nuisance because they're quite pretty really when they're all growed up. You've done a brilliant job mind you ...

Hide-n-seek worms! You're teaching her such good tricks of the trade, Anon. And it's neat to see her own instinctual "bird-ness" coming through!

Perhaps you could start a worm farm Umbingo ... Eating mildly cooked pork can get you started!

I read all the story (sooo niiiice) and if I understand well (has someone else realized?) this is NOT a minor, not even a MYNA..heheheh But what kind of bird is it? I've taken a look at all the other birds in your pool and the only thing I'm sure of is that it's NOT a Cookie nor a Parrot.... Hhehehehe. It's certainly not a cat, even she has the same strong character of Mademoiselle Princesse... :P

WOW you are GOOD MerlinPrincesse! Right now I am very inclined to agree!!!! HOWEVER, after Mini's 'Release' Post I will be posting some clues for everyone to have fun with guessing:)

Lavender said...

(Dont blame you there Mate!)

Good one about the Pork- - HAHAHAHA!!!

Merlinprincesse gets a gold star!

Lavender said...

...or an "E" for effort - either way, shes been paying attention to all the Aussie birds - gotta count for something!

I think MerlinPrincesse has been paying very close attention, Lavender! She is also a very clever Lady :) Umbingo really should start a worm farm if he loves worms that much! Hhehheee
