Orion not liking the fireworks, Beauty came back to comfort him and to make him scream more!

Wow, that is interesting, thanks Kris. I know when my male Cockatiel first went through a molt, I had no clue. He looked ragged, was NASTY and was sitting at the bottom of his cage, (which usually means they are not feeling well. I called the vet, (in frantic mode) and he said, calm down, what are his symptoms? I told him and he said----he's going through a molt and they can get very irritable and may not even want you to touch them. So, I'm like, alrighty then, that explains it. Now I know when Moe gets cranky, even with the love of his life, my daughter, he's in a molt and we leave him alone. He likes it that way!

[The research group performed necropsies -- the wildlife equivalent of autopsies -- on 67 northern fulmars that had died ashore or washed ashore. They found that 92.5 per cent of the birds had twine, Styrofoam candy wrappers and other plastics in their stomachs. The average was 36.8 pieces per bird -- although one bird had 454 pieces of plastic in its stomach -- and the average weight of the plastic was 0.385 grams per bird.]

Salty is a 20-centimetre tall cowbird that’s made a habit of meeting golfers at the fifth tee. According to golfer Elaine Shaw, the bird occasionally tags along until players finish up their game on the ninth green.

Four peregrine falcons which had been nesting at Glenwherry near Ballymena are believed to have been killed, police have said.

The two adult and two chick Peregrine Falcons went missing from the area on the Glenhead Road.

One of the chicks was later discovered fatally injured and it is believed it may have been shot.

The other birds are also thought to have been killed. Police have said they are treating it as animal cruelty.

They added that the falcons are a protected species.

Police investigations are continuing and they want anyone with information to contact them on 0845 600 8000
