Chapter 166: The Origin of the Bird's Nest

At the edge of the meadow, Monkey Three is surrounded by a flock of quacking waterfowl. Outside, there was Li Xiaopang who was holding his arms and watching the excitement, as well as more than a dozen little dolls in the village, and Yaya was also smiling inside. They all widened their eyes, for fear of missing the show.

Monkey San was also unambiguous, and he screamed in his mouth, then raised his little paw and pointed to the sky, and stomped his foot violently, making a snort in his mouth.

Those waterfowl also shook their spirits, flapped their wings, and ran to the water bubbles not far away, and the sound of popping was endless.

the hair, even let you fly into the sky, but don't ask you to swim into the water - the monkey three straight to the back of the head of the monkey hair. As for the waterfowl, one by one, they swam more happily than the other, and a few small wild ducks plunged their entire upper bodies into the water, and then showed their fluffy buttocks to the sky and began to filter feed.

The little sand gull is also good, the eyes are fast, the mouth is fast, from the water to pick up an inch long small fish and shrimp, swallow it into the stomach, eat that is called a happy one.

Hahaha-Li Xiaopang finally couldn't help it, and laughed very undisciplinedly.

Monkey San was also annoyed, and his mouth squeaked a few times, full of anger. Not to mention, these waterfowl also heard that the monkey father was angry, and they all swam ashore obediently one by one, and reunited to the three monkeys, one or two of them posed as good children.

Although he was angry, Monkey San was really reluctant to fight. After a bit of scratching his ears and cheeks, the little monkey came up with another trick. I saw it pick up a sand gull and throw it into the sky. The little sand gull screamed in its mouth, flapped its wings vigorously, and fell into the grass, but it didn't know how to fly.

Try another one - Monkey San persevered, picked up a little wild duck, and threw it into the air. However, the wild duck was heavier, and the monkey threw it more hard, barely throwing it over his head, and the wild duck flapped his wings hard, and pulled it into the face of the monkey three, making the little monkey heel.

At this time, even the onlookers laughed, laughing so much that the monkey's face became redder, and they ran to the ugly duckling angrily, looking like they wanted to continue to practice.

Helplessly, with its small physique, it is good to barely be able to pick up the ugly duckling, let alone throw it and take off.

"Do you need my help?" Li Xiaopang kindly came up, but as a result, the ugly ducklings screamed and besieged him, and all kinds of sharp beaks and flat beaks beckoned to his legs.

"The bird pecks Li Xiaopang, I don't know the hearts of good people!" The little fat brother had no choice but to retreat.

And on the third side of the monkey, there is no recruitment, the key is that it can't demonstrate. At this time, it was Yaya who stepped forward and extended a helping hand to Monkey San. I saw that the little girl went to the edge of the bubble and went around, and soon, she brought back a few big birds, including swans, red-crowned cranes, and of course, wild ducks and mandarin ducks.

This is looking for a teacher - the little monkey scratched his ears and cheeks with joy, and led the little soldiers to meet him. Helplessly, these waterfowl were raised by it since childhood, and they recognized this monkey father, and they had no feelings and sense of identity for their kind, and they refused to get close to them at all.

When the big bird brought back by the girl took the initiative to cry and stretch its neck, and greet its kind, these little guys actually pecked at people fiercely, and they simply didn't know what to do. It wasn't until the monkey squeaked a few times in his mouth that the little guys stopped.

Then, it is the time when the adult waterfowl begin to perform and fly under the command of Yaya. Li Xiaopang also watched with relish on the side, it turned out that all kinds of water birds took off differently: the swans were the most domineering, and they had to be in the water, their wings flapped, the water surface was rippling, and the distance of the run-up was relatively long, just like an airplane taking off.

Wild ducks don't look stupid when they walk, but they are actually very light and flexible when they take off; But compared with the red-crowned crane, the posture is much worse. The long legs of the red-crowned crane kicked lightly, and it flew into the clear sky, without a trace of fireworks, no wonder it was called a crane.

The sand gull, on the other hand, is the most flexible because of its small size, and it can be said that it has its own characteristics and is pleasing to the eye.

Even the little soldiers of Monkey San stared at each other, perhaps it was the flight of these waterfowl that awakened something sleeping in their bodies, and they all flapped their wings and were eager to try.

There is a door - Li Xiaopang's eyes can't help but brighten, or Yaya is smart, this method has an effect.

However, if you want these little waterfowl to learn to fly, it is obviously not an overnight thing, these little guys are vigorously flapping their wings, but they refuse to leave the ground. Monkey San's temper was urgent, and he was pushing behind with all his strength, making the little wild duck croak.

In the end, it was Li Xiaopang who pulled Monkey San back, he felt that as long as these little guys were told to have more contact with adult water birds, learning to fly must be a matter of course.

The development of things was just as Li Xiaopang expected, and it only took two days for several little sand gulls and little wild ducks to finally overcome the psychological barrier and fly into the sky for the first time. Stimulated by them, several other little ones also showed their abilities and took off into the air. The three monkeys became empty, so that the little monkey didn't get used to it for a while.

The happiest is Li Xiaopang: Oh my mother, I finally got rid of these annoying little guys, and everyone who croaked Ouou every day was noisy to death.

So he happily led Monkey San home, and deliberately fried two more dishes in the evening, preparing to have two drinks with Old Man Wu. During this time, Lao Wang was invited to go out to give a report, so he was not at home; Professor Rebs also returned to China temporarily, saying that he would come to congratulate him when the exhibition hall was completed. Without this eye-catching foreigner, Li Xiaopang's home is much cleaner. This time, of course, it's cleaner.

When he bumped into the small wine cup with Old Man Wu, Li Xiaopang squeaked a sip of wine, and took a bite of food, which was delicious. As a result, after taking a sip of the old man, Mr. Wu put down the wine cup and said: "The pond fish thinks of the old abyss, the birds love the old nest, these water birds will not come back, right?" ”

Li Xiaopang was putting vegetables in his mouth, but he almost choked: "No, the wings are hard, the vast world, soaring at will, who will return to this suffocating and aggrieved nest-"

As soon as the words fell, I saw a few dark shadows flash in front of the window, and then the familiar rattling and Ouou sounds rang out. Li Xiaopang couldn't help but pat his head hard: "It's really right for you to tell me, these guys really regard this as home!" ”

That's right, these waterfowl are relied upon, they fly out every morning, wander outside all day, and in the evening, they must come back to report to Monkey Three. annoyed Li Xiaopang, and carried the ears of the monkey three: "You can't learn from the old hugger, run away, see which one dares to come back!" ”

It is said that after the old hen hatches the chicks, she will bring the chicks to the semi-adult, during this period, the old hen will fully fulfill the mother's responsibilities, as long as there are those who dare to threaten the chicks, no matter what cats or dogs, they will not rush up like their lives; But when the chicks grow up, the old hen will leave the nest, and at this time, if the chicks still come forward and want to lie under the wings of the old hen, then the old hen will unceremoniously peck until the chicks are no longer daring to come forward.

But Monkey San is not an old hen, and the little monkey can't be ruthless, so he can only do this first, and Li Xiaopang also resigned himself to his fate. I hope that in late autumn, when migratory birds migrate south, they can take these pesky little guys away.

And at this time, the village chief's aunt brought Li Xiaopang another good news: the ostrich eggs brought back were finally hatched successfully. However, the village chief's aunt had never raised this thing, so she didn't know how to serve it, so she sent it to Li Xiaopang.

I saw several women coming in with large and small cardboard boxes, and they were still shouting: "It's the first time I've seen such a big bird cub, good guy, it's almost half a big chicken cub." ”

Li Xiaopang stretched out his neck to take a look, and there were gray chicks inside, huddled together, seeing Li Xiaopang's head big, he shouted "I can't stand it" in his mouth, and then grabbed the door.

"Don't run, you don't care who cares about what you have come back!" The village chief's aunt was shouting in the back.

Out of sight is clean, Li Xiaopang wandered outside until dark before going home, oops, I saw that the floor of the house was full of little ostriches, with long legs and big feet, drawing circles all over the ground - maybe because they had just come out of the shell and were not fully developed, these little guys were not very stable to walk.

Needless to say, this is naturally Yaya's idea, Li Xiaopang looked at Yaya standing on the ground, and smiled on her little face, so she had to accept her fate again: My family will be called the Bird's Nest in the future!

In addition to Yaya, Xiao Gezi also sat on the edge of the kang with a smile and looked at those cute little ostriches. These little guys do look a little silly. After asking, Li Xiaopang learned that newborn ostriches are similar to chicks, and they don't need to be fed within a day, because the yolk in their bodies can also provide nutrition for a period of time.

However, it is also a matter of time before eating, Xiao Gezi has checked the ostrich breeding information brought back by Li Xiaopang from the Siberian Tiger Garden, and knows that the little ostrich is not a picky eater, and can initially be fed soft, easy-to-digest food, or supplemented by some vegetable leaves.

After listening, Li Xiaopang scratched the back of his head: "Isn't this similar to feeding a chickβ€”"

It turns out that the little ostrich can eat more than the chicks, and the millet soaked in water pecks aggressively, so pecking that Li Xiaopang finally couldn't help but let out a wail: "Tomorrow I will go to Dianzi to eat by myself!" ”

The newborn ostrich is still relatively delicate, afraid of cold and heat, and when sleeping at night, the cardboard box has to be padded with a layer of old cotton wool. If it is sprinkled on the meadow, it will definitely not take two days to live, so for the time being, it can only be in Li Xiaopang.

"Just left a Monkey King, and a bunch of monkeys came, why did I owe it in the first place, I have to ask for some ostrich eggs, I should fry them directly." Li Xiaopang had all kinds of broken thoughts in his mouth. But since the little ostriches have hatched, they can only be raised well.

Always put it in the house, the taste is still relatively smoky, so the ostrich nest is put on the agenda again. Considering the sheer size of the adult ostriches, the nest cannot be too small. Li Xiaopang pondered, just don't put it at home, find a vacant land at the edge of the village, and build an ostrich park. Build a greenhouse directly, in one step, and you don't have to bother in winter.

The ostrich garden was built next to the stables, and even after thinking of the name, it was called the bird's nest. Because judging from the current situation, it is definitely not only the ostrich family who winters here, but the little soldiers of the monkey will also become the guests in the bird's nest.

Li Xiaopang wondered: Are you migratory birds, don't you go to the south in winter, is it interesting to rely on us?
