Well, it was a little later on that Mom discovered what it had been. It was just a fluke that it fell to the floor, really. I thought it was a heavenly sign just for me!

Mom had found two of these baby hawk
feathers in the back yard. She'd shown
them to us when she brought them in,
but I didn't know where she'd put them.
It just fell from the air. Honest!

I thought maybe if I ate it, I could learn to fly or something. I don't think that was unreasonable.

ReplyDeletei don't think feathers are very heatlhy to eat. i ate one once (i think from a pigeon) and it made me puke.
ReplyDeleteYeah, my mom doesn't think so, either. She told me I shouldn't have eaten it and what if I had to go to the cat fix-it place? But so far so good--I haven't barfed or anything. (Of course, I haven't started to fly yet, either, so maybe I'll leave the other one alone. Anyway, she really hid it this time and I don't think it will be falling on the floor any time soon.)
ReplyDeletePhew! I saw the picture and thought you were moulting for a sec...
ReplyDeleteI say anything that is on the floor inside is belongs to the feline(s) of the house (and the dog, if one)!
ReplyDeleteNot at all. I eat feffers all the time, whenever I can find them ~ Ko Ko
