hmmxx.. well i quit my job le =PpP yesh.. tt means i onli worked for 2 days =PpP
hmmxx.. let mi talk abt e experience in dere.. it was
noisy, smelly, dirty, bloody,tiring BUT
FUN... but now, my arm has got
scratches due to parrot's 'claws'... dey flew to me and
always land on the section of my arm w/o the wristband... yah... not their fault... i shd hv brought my arm closer to my body... and jessie (a scarlot macaw; parrot)
bite mi! i was supposed to bring her back to her cage... bite my thumb instead of standing on my arm... bad girl... hahaz... cant blame it though... birds also like humans... wary of strangers... bully newcomers... well, parrot's bite can be realli terrible kaes... but i was lucky enough.. it din bite veri veri hard.. else i mite nid stitches... (but still abit pain lahz) happened before!
cut fruits for parrots, seriemas, toucans (put in their food tray while watching out for dem), weigh fishes for pelicans wadeva in dere... it's all
HANDS-ON... yeap... tt means touching the stinko fishes... hahaz... feeding dem to e birds can be 'dangerous'... considering their sharp 'razors'... i entered their cage and threw dem as far as possible... bit by bit... a few at a time... phew... not attacked... fed fruits to hornbills... BY HAND!!! yes... food on palm... dey eat from dere... and their beaks? as long as my arm... hahaz... senior beside lahz... she onli let me feed the less temperamental ones... yeap.. different birds have
different characters.. and different birds (of same species) hv different looks... to me, dey all look e same though... =PpP nxt time u ppl watch the birds and buddies show @ bird park... pls be appreciative... on the outside, it looks veri nice... birds fly when music starts... actualli, tt's not e case... backstage is busybusybusy... e pigeon cage is super heavy... with pigeons inside, even heavier... gotta carry and release dem at start of show... carry up n down staircase somemore... but well, i'm STRONG!
other parts... all team effort... birds dont just go on stage and fly back when it's time... do u tik dey noe dey hv to b out at 3pm n in after like say 5mins? wahaha...
gotta walk here n dere... seriously sweat alot sia... wahaha... den ur appetite increases a lot also... den u slp veri well... wahaha...
2days n such an experience... lol... nice... but it'll be realli physically tiring if i do tis everyday... ya =PpP and my parents are afraid tt i mite nid to go to e hospital for stitches... actualli i'm afraid too.. though e show birds are trained, those on display arent... and if i'm not careful, dey can disfigure me! =S those parrots at the talking bird exhibits are known to pounce at newbies... if i enter their aviaries with dem inside, tt's it! =P
