Pictures & Notes |
April 16, 1999
A pair of nice closeups of our
feathered friend.

 |
| We've already seen several of
the night herons since Bullet arrived again on March 27th.
The snowy egret arrived not long
after, and as usual, the two birds perform their aggressive territorial
manuevers around each other.They will tolerate each other
up to a distance of about 5 feet, unless there are minnows present. :) |

Okay, we were bad. Spoiled
bird is even more spoiled than before.

We started letting him eat
just inside the back door, then one morning he ended up on the counter. We'll have to discourage this. That afternoon, he flew in the door while Scott was working with a customer, landed on the boxes of salted baits on the counter, then sidled over to look at the customers bag of minnows. The customer slipped one out the the bag for him. Reminds me of giving a dog a bisquit... he begs pretty
much the same way.
So, since we can't have him cruising
in and startling the customers, not to mention that sharp beak, Bullet will have to go back to his outside feeding cup routine. |

Jamie Orlando won our baby bird
Naming Contest when her choice received the most votes
in our poll.

"Shyster" has been learning
the ropes from the two older birds.
As of 9/9/99, we have two young birds
here. The newer one is a little larger than Shyster, so we think
it's a female. I think we'll name her Gizmo (another
name contributed by Bryon Haslam).
These birds are very territorial. We've watched them chasing each other around for the last few weeks, sometimes fluffing up their feathers, other times, bouncing up and down at each other with their wings extended. JR, last years youngster, is especially bossy. She's been competing with the older bird Bullet, to the extent
of pulling Bullets white crest off!
