Day 16
Kiwi and Meringue (the parents) have discovered a candle on the shelf where
they like to perch. They go mad trying to eat (or just chew) the wax. Kiwi
is starting to spend more and more time out of the nest box. Also Meringue
has resumed his advances and Kiwi is suddenly receptive again. I guess they
are thinking of starting another new family.
Meringue (the dad) is starting to sing again the way he used to before all of
this family stuff began. He sits on a perch on the cage or up on the shelf
across the room and "babbles". It's quite beuatiful really.
