Mon 3.24 1200 hrs

A little tweety bird surprised us by flying into the pilot house this afternoon. It was a tiny little green thing. As we watched it for a bit he decided to dive down the boat for a little tour. I took off after it as it flew into the main salon for a couple of circles, then through the galley and up into the forepeak. Man, talk about the full tour. I rousted up Amit on the way and closed doors behind me as it dove into the deep corner of the v-birth and disappeared into the many misc canvas covers, sailbags, and whatnot gear shoved up there. We had to slowly pull it all out until we found him hiding in the corner and coaxed him out the open hatch.

Wow. Poor little bird.

You weren't saying anything like "Sufferin' Succotash!" when you were trying to catch it, were you?
