Swallow my finger. The smaller
bird of will - as far as I'm more
readily than of this - was not
at all afraid and gave only
chirp note. A faint querulous
chirper can now be heard
when gulling from my post.
All birds loose from old removed
from nest and handled - can
sit up on fingers fairly well -
The larger bird - put along to
any slight touched.
Not his very crowded - once
really pithy on the rain bright
me down in middle and in
bottom.
Secondain ½ mm fine of sheaths
at end.
Each one voided as I extracted
it from nest - one hit an edge
of nest where I allowed it to
remain - another bird backed
to edge of defeated at edge.
Parents came close - it was
closely and once a trace of
wraith. - came as close as
at any time giving usual fun-
notes (quality of Q & A different
slightly) - Q at time gave faint
querulous big in his spiritual -
not dwelt to male.
Left - q ritumol and still
gave big - then would break
