Kites, Cows, and Dogs

Friday morning I walked Bob up this hill close to Maya Devi. The goal being to fly him down to his usual parahawking landing site. On the way up we ran into lots of Nepali wome, resulting in lots of baiting, some cows, and one brave kite. The kite came down and got me in the head from behind. I thought that was the end of it until she also mobbed Bob in flight. At least we tried.

Because of Tihar, all the pilots were off and he restaurant was closed. Scott, Anita, Talo, and I walked into town to have lunch. For some reason there were a lot of cows in the streets, more than usual. There was also a cow vs. dog stand off for some food.

Speaking of dogs, the street dogs are so well mannered and submissive its really weird that they mind people amd direction so well.

Scooby went missing for a few days, i was worried out him but he showed up this morning. :)

Kevin and Bob went through Extreme Aviary Makeover: Insect Addition this morning. I throughly disinfected their aviaries and Scott put tarps down. Hopefully this will help us keep a handle on what they're eating. Bob gained 20g after chowing on bugs last night.

I'm off to do a vulture talk for a British group, though they'd much prefer to talk to Scott. Oh well, what to do
