Okay so for those of you who do not know in March we got birds. Even though mom did NOT want them at all. I figured I should blog their story and their sad ending.
In March we were literally packing up the car to go on a little trip to the ocean, when my husband stops in the doorway and tells the kids "Hey come look at this bird". Then he makes the comment that this is not a wild bird, it is a pet bird, in fact he thinks it is a zebra finch. So we talk the the mgr and she does not know who has birds because you do not need a pet deposit to have birds. Well mom is saying lets go the bird is fine, the (insert your favorite word here) bird flies into our house.
After an hour of Brandon chasing this bird around with a small net from the kids Elefun game he catches it. At this point I am beyond irrated and want to go. Of course Brandon has to find a cage for it and in the mean time tells the kids that if no one claims it after the weekend then we can keep it! I am sorry but birds are messy and noisy. But the kids are so happy now.
When we get back of course no one has claimed it, so not only do we "get" to keep this bird, they have to live in pairs or more because they are flock birds. We "get" to buy a second bird, hooray! The children are so excited! ( I am including Brandon in this)
Birds are home now (Buzz and Woody, Jackosn named them) and we are living in bird bliss. Almost all of us. I of course do nothing with the birds, do not lift their cover (unless Jackson asks), feed them, water them nothing. Brandon's bird his job!
That is how our birds came to be.
