Adventures with Mel and Syd

So much happened overnight, oh where to begin. 

Adi stepped out & was seen on the porch, playground & roof several times before the event we all were waiting for, Hunter’s 1st emergence 12:35am. 

Adi joined Hunter on the porch to congratulate her on this major achievement. Hunter stayed out flappercising for 23 minutes then went back in 12:58am. Hunter’s 2nd appearance came at 1:09am. This time she stayed out for 10 minutes.

Supplement treats were provided in the Feed Box. It contained 2 treats 1 of which was alive. Approx 2:30am Adi retrieved the live treat, went to the left of the playground to a roost pipe (not one of the platforms), balanced herself, shredded & ate. Way to go Adi on passing your 1st hunting test. Adi then brought the other treat into the box to stash for later.  Around 3:09am we had an UFO visit.

Hunter came out to the porch a 3rd time 4:39am. Seeing her out Adi flew to the roof to say hi then flew off. Hunter flapped her way up to the roof 4:56am. Adi joined her there 5:02am then flew to the left of playground. Hunter jumped down and back up 5:09am. Then decided she had enough for the day and went inside 5:11am. Adi called it a night 5:24am. Hunter greeted him with sweet little kisses.  Hunter worked up an appetite eating the treat which Adi so thoughtfully brought her 5:27.
