My "real" first blog!

So in this blog I am gonna write about "BIRDS!"

Ok! So if you really want a bird, think about things like

-Are you just gonna take care of it the first few days, and then pay no attention to it?

- Are you ready to take responsibility?

And so on and on.

So I think if you are going to be very interested in the bird you should get one!

I have a bird so if you get annoyed with the chirping in the morning let me assure you, YOU'LL GET USED TO IT! I didn't get my bird's wings clipped but you should. You have to be an expert to train the bird without its wings clipped.  You can take it to the bird store or the vet to have the wings clipped.  This will allow you to leave the bird out of the cage for a few hours so it can get some "fresh air." You should get the wings clipped as soon as you get the bird, if you wait too long to clip the bird's wings it can get shocked and die because it is scary for them, atleast when they are babies they won't get as scared.  Remember when you were a newborn you wouldn't start crying when your mum said you were gonna get a shot. Same with birds.

When you are near the bird you should sing, it makes the bird happy because when they are chirping they are singing too! They have two different chirps the first one is a "peaceful" one, and the other one is an "annoyed or unhappy" chirp.  You might hear a bird start to sing when the water is running, they are probably trying to beat the noise of the tap so they can be heard. The other reason is it might be because they are unhappy:( When my bird wants food in his container I know because he flaps around, and when I come home from school there are ALOT of feathers at the bottom of his cage!!!!!!! 

That's all the news I have for today!!!

I hope this helps you in your decision to get a bird or to understand birds!!!!
