Last week I was at work sitting at my desk when all of a sudden I heard fluttering sounds coming from on top of the boxes on the shelves. Even on top of a chair I couldn't see over the boxes that were on the top shelf so I grabbed a ruler and swipped it across the box to see what came out. Thinking back on it that was kind of a bold move considering some of the creatures that are here. What came fluttering out was a cute little birdie, only about 2 inches tall.
He kept fluttering around trying to find the exit but just kept slamming into walls. He found a place to stop on top of a poster that was hanging on the wall. I gotta say...that bird had some good balance. He made his way back over to the top shelf but this time landed in front of the boxes. I grabbed my ruler again and surprisingly he let me push the ruler against his belly. Slowly one claw stepped onto the ruler. I lifted the ruler up a little to see if he was on there all the way but his other claw was still on the shelf. So I pushed again against his belly and the other claw stepped up. He just kind of stood there on the ruler while I carried it out the door. I was planning to set him on the ground in case he was hurt but as soon as I got him outside he flew away.
He was probably lured by the Mt. Dew soaked HoHos.
That sounds unbelievably gross! Besides I think Mt Dew is way to sweet for me now. I can't believe I ever liked that stuff! And as for HoHo's it has been so long I don't remember the last time I had a HoHo. I think that maybe my taste buds have grown up a little.
