Bum Chicken bit me this morning.

he only bites when he’s over-stimulated. generally from finding his own reflection just too damn sexy to ignore. now most times i notice and take away whatever shiny object he found before he gets too excited. this morning he was obsessing into a pair of scissors i left out from the night before and i didnt notice until he’d had too much time to get excited over it. 

so that was my B. i know better than to be leaving scissors out. 

BUT he knows better than to actually BITE. 99% of the time his “bites” are bluff strikes. he just “hits” my hand with his beak but no actual biting takes place. his way of saying “you moved too fast and spooked me” or “im upset that your taking away my shiny thing.” 

but this morning was an actual beak into flesh bite. very rare from him. i think it surprized both of us because he immediately went to hide in his cage for a while. 

we all good now. it was just a weird start to the morning.

So if you aren’t Australian and are scared of snakes and spiders here’s a little secret for you… it’s the birds that actually scare us. Normally it’s magpies that swoop the ever loving fuck out of us but today while driving home my car was ineffectually attacked by several Peewees.

I love a good “blooper”.  But I like how this screenshot turned out overall. :)

When birds attack...

I was talking on the phone with @crunchyfrogart/@kyriadalyn and a bird pooped on Spawn. I wish I'd taken a picture, but I didn't since I was still on the phone. I wiped off his face. And within 5-10 minutes, I got pooped on, but it "luckily" landed on my shoulder. I wiped myself off. Then, Spawn face planted. This was all in my backyard. Are you impressed with my mothering abilities? I would have stayed hanging outside too, but Spawn seemed kind of sleepy. And, since he was already miserable, I figured I'd, figuratively, kick him while he was down and subject him to bath time. I don't bathe him very frequently. I won't name a time frame, but if you know my personal hygiene habits, you can probably guess what I mean by a LONG time to go without a bath. From the moment I turned on the water until he was wrapped up and put in his bed, he cried. Maybe 10 minutes? He did fall asleep super fast though. And now! I should get to cleaning my house. I haven't cleaned AT ALL since Friday. Hubby and I weren't feeling very well. I had lady problems and I think he got food poisoning on Thursday. He actually left work early, came home for a bit, and then went to the ER. I didn't go with him. He actually left while I went to put Spawn down for a nap and didn't tell me until he was already on his way in an uber. It was probably for the best that he went alone since it would have been a bit of an ordeal and we both would have worried that Spawn would get sick, etc. etc. Anyways. My house is a disaster, so I should really go. Bye for now!

The Birds? Maybe? lol This was also part of our designing exercise homework. Basic shapes combined with only 2 colors.
