NaPoWriMo#6

Baby bird, you are
in our hearts. Such a
ratbag, you've wormed your way.
Rule the roost (you think),
Entrance and annoy, but
New family we've gained.


For our little one, who is approaching 2 months of age, and in memory of the tiny sibling who only survived 3 days.
Hand reared after the death of the male around 1 week after hatching.
A real character, who currently has free reign of the house.
(Though a solution needs to be found to the cage he hates)

Birren is a Noongar (local aboriginal) word meaning "small grey bird".
