Peanut is Brave Now
He is becoming more domesticated
oday Peanut entered the room. Edwin did the same some weeks ago. They seem to have found the confidence needed to walk around me and search for food, maybe also warmth and companionship.
This afternoon Peanut found the courage to sit on the doorknob. By the evening Peanut also stayed there to bottle-feed. Before it became dark I managed to feed Peanut and Durian from the same jar at the same time. They began to argue and howl.
The progress with Peanut and Durian is fast. They grew up with us. If they live for 20 years to come, we’ll be in our 60s.
Peanut has just begun making bird noises like Durian.
Birds raised (and fed) by humans do not act like wild birds.
I wished we had began birding decades earlier.
