When we had two baby quail.....
Chuck called them velociraptors. And they were like velociraptors. I pity the poor bugs that found their way inside the aquarium. It was pandemonium.
When they got a little bigger we gave them to our landlord. I don't know why he wanted them. I don't know why anyone wants them other than to raise up and release so that the quail quantities increase in the world. They aren't cuddly, at all. They're not even friendly. You might even call them ungrateful. And Rita, well, she was a .... let's just say she wasn't known for her kindness. Her manners were BAD. She'd trample all over Bobby to get what she wanted. em em em
(I'm shaking my head remembering.)
And if you know the Burns family then you'll see the humor in these names that Charley, very randomly, picked for our birds.

Rita 'n Bobby 4Ever. Also, birds are dinosaurs.
ReplyDeleteOh I forgot about that! They are! I can see the resemblance. Rita is Chuck's aunt and Bobby is his cousin, but Charley wasn't thinking of that when she named them. Funny.
