The chicks were up to their usual shenanigans today. I brought them out some grapes and they went bonkers. Mirabelle can gulp them down whole, but Chloe has trouble picking them up and swallowing them, they are too big for her. She'll eventually get a hold of one and take it into the corner, and Mirabelle will chase after her and try to get it. Even though I have a whole plate full of grapes, right in front of them.
Today Mirabelle was pushing Chloe out of the way, so I was trying to put the grapes right in front of Chloe so she would get some. Mirabelle tried to jump over Chloe and ended up knocking over the whole plate of grapes. A crash, loud squawking, feathers flying ensued. They freaked themselves out, and then were all cautious about approaching me and the picked-up grapes, as if I was the one that caused all the commotion.
Here they are approaching the grapes for Round 2.
And at the feeder.
