Oh Pacha … and a few pictures of our rescued birds

Bilingual BooksLire en FrançaisContact us

Pacha has been terrible this last few days. All summer, he was a quiet raven, enjoying the sun, taking baths in the warm rays, singing nice songs that echoed through the house, and losing so many small feathers that I thought I could make a pillow out of them (Yes, I actually began). But now that the fall is here, Pacha woke up from his serene slumber. It is time to store food everywhere, so he is hiding treats under the furniture, in his sandbox, and in his perch, as if he is preparing for a long winter ahead. He seems to be frantically searching for every possible spot to stash away his bounty, rummaging through my belongings with an almost obsessive determination. The once calm atmosphere has transformed into a whirlwind of activity. His intense focus on collecting food has become both amusing and somewhat exhausting, as I try to keep track of all the places he decides to hide his precious finds.

Contrary to Pacha, Teash, our little rescued crow, continues her life as usual, embracing each day with vibrant enthusiasm. She sings for hours on end (oh my ears!), filling the room with her loud but lovely melodies. Unlike many wild crows, Teash does not hide her food; instead, she appreciates each meal as it comes, asking for more if she doesn’t find her favorite food (boiled eggs). While this behavior is certainly good for me, as it makes cleaning time easier and more enjoyable, I often worry about her adaptability. If she were to find herself living outside in the wild, she might struggle to survive, as her instincts might not guide her to store food for the harsher days ahead, and I can’t help but wonder how she would fare in such a daunting environment…

I added a few pictures of our rescued birds for your enjoyment. I hope these photographs bring a smile to your face…
