So it seems Lucy is getting less and less afraid of the dog. Today, it was almost as if she was picking on him. At one point I had her, Bo tried sniffing her, and she just kept trying to bite his nose. Usually, if he were to sniff her, she would climb up my arm to my shoulder, and she had the clear opportunity to do just that.

Then later, I was doing homework on the couch, and she kept trying to chew on my keyboard, as well as the chord for my headphones. Now sometimes, when I want her to stop doing something, I'll set her on the coffee table, as I leave things for her to chew on. Well today, she seemed extra insistent on trying to "help" me. The dog was standing in between the couch and the coffee table, sniffing the floor. Now keep in mind, my dog is only 8 pounds, and he's shorter than the coffee table by about a foot. So what does Lucy do?

She hops down off the coffee table, and lands on his back. Freaks him out, but I got her to step up before anything happened.

I'm guessing she thought he would make a good stepping stone to get across, because flying is just too much work. :lol:

Funny enough, later on that day, she kept wanting to "help" me. I put her on the coffee table again, and she gets prepared to fly back. However, right when she took off, the phone rang, and it freaked her out, so instead of flying to me, she flew into the kitchen, and landed on the ceiling fan that doesn't work.

Just wanted to be extra crazy today, I guess.

Maybe you should dress up as a cockatiel hen for Halloween. That would get his attention!

There's someone in town here, who designs wings for people too. You would have to wait until next year to order anything, for Halloween, though. :lol:

Is it bad that I want these? They would make a killing selling these in white. People could have the coolest angel costumes. Or made them with macaw feathers. That would be good too.

She actually has a facebook page and an "Etsy Shop", where she makes wings and sells them. You can even get a custom order.

https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheCrookedFeather

Not all of her wings move like that. From my understanding, that's the first pair she made that actually moves like that.

That's really cool! But the little fart noise that keeps firing off would be kind of embarrassing.

Hawk wings don't come cheap though. This listing for a sold pair on the Etsy page says they're $2200 plus $120 shipping. https://www.etsy.com/transaction/1056369739?
