Flight!

[asterroc]

Kappa just made her first purposeful flight! I'd been sitting in the dining room w/in sight of her cage, and listening to the birds at the feeder on the window. She'd been putzing around atop the cage making a bit of irritated noises, when suddenly I heard wings from her cage and she flew out of the foyer, through the dining room, and landed on the window screen next to the feeder and near me. ^_^ It seems like she was a bit surprised by where she ended up, and not in good control, but she very clearly wasn't the slightest bit afraid. I put out my hand for her and she stepped right up onto me, her eyes pinning.

Hooray for Kappa!

*Makes mental note to be even more conscientious about closing her cage when appropriate.*

Awesome!

I'd totally give Kappa a set of pilot wings, but I don't think she'd take kindly to having them pinned on.

Hopefully she'll settle for these:

Heh, flying once doesn't yet mean she's a pilot. She hasn't shown any inclination to repeat the feat throughout the day. We'll see how she does with time. :)
