Hi all. Ever have that feeling? You wake up, look around and suddenly see what you have forgotten to do the evening before? Well I did this morning. That was a very quick wake up procedure, I tell you. Normally when I get home from work the first thing I do is boot up my PC, get some coffee and let Otto out so he can fly around somewhat when he feels to. Forgetting this last part results in some ferocious squeaking from Otto behind me, kindly reminding me that when I'm home, the door should be OPEN! With this warm weather I usually first let Otto loose until it gets a bit cooler outside and then open the balcony door and bedroom window so I can get the heat out. Otto however does not always come out directly nor does he stay out until he's to go back, he's just as happy in his 'home' as he is out of it. Yesterday when I got home from a night of snooker I opened the balcony door again to get some fresh and cold air in during the night and went to bed almost straight after. This morning when I woke up my hart almost stopped when I saw that I had forgotten to close Otto's door when opening the balcony door! Both of them had been open for the entire night!. If he had decided to go and 'look what's behind door number three' he would have been gone forever. It's not that pet birds might not want to come back, but they're simply not able to find the way home again. Otto however was not very impressed at all by my sudden friendliness and happiness to see him and just stayed where he was: on the little swing, his favorite place in his home. He just looked at me as if he was thinking 'come on mate, it way to early to be that exited, come back in the afternoon and we'll talk about it' ... Funny cool little green creature that bird is, and I'm so glad he didn't all of a sudden went missing overnight. Thanks for sticking around Otto, you're a real pall :-D
