Our parakeets are overweight. When we got home from eating breakfast at McD with Gloria, a parishioner, I usually open the cage doors; so the parakeets can fly inside the house or just the dining room area.
They got spooked and Winnie-Tot flew upstairs. She was on the floor of my computer, got lost in the shower room, crashed into the vanity mirror, and landed inside the toilet. Her wings were spread out like an airliner.
And I quickly scooped her up with my right hand and brought her to the nearby sink where I rinsed her well-oiled feathers and her face-twice. Then I rushed her downstairs and settled her into the cage to dry.
She felt heavy in the palm of my hand.
