Canary Lionel

On Tuesday morning this week, Lionel was waiting patiently on our doorstep for someone to let him in. His wing seemed to be broken and his head sloped to one side. I put him in box and called the RSPCA for his collection but he went absolutely berserk. There was no sign of his collection so I let him fly around in the kitchen. Immediately he looked happier, went over to the sink and drank some water from a cup then sat on the handle of the window in the warm sun and had a mid-morning snooze. I purchased some Trill and he scoffed like there was no tomorrow and went back to sleep.

He seems to have taken residence in our lamp and I don’t have it in me to let him go. His neck has made a vast improvement and maybe he’ll make a full recovery. Otherwise, he might be too ill and just die. Either way I’m going to buy him a cage to hang out in this weekend along with some of those bell-shaped seed things and a mirror so he thinks he has a friend of his own species.

    I am very excited about meeting Lionel. He looks like a really cool guy and i’d like to talk about christian theology with him.
