Mayhem and Madness

This morning we woke up to absolute mayhem and a scene of sadness and destruction today. Our birdies seem to have gone mad. Ross and Monica's remaining baby was thrown out of the nest and was lying dead, and the pair was thrown out of their nest by Chandler and Becks, who'd already laid an egg there.

One of Joey and Phoebe's babies seem to have dissapeared and we couldn't find it. The other baby was still alive and kicking.

The third nest ( Ricky and Rachel's ) now had only one egg. There were two, but they threw one of them out, and it lay smashed on the floor.

Ricky was the only consolation in all of this. When we came home in the evening we saw that he'd finally found his mate in Rachel, and was sleeping in the nest with her. Among all the sadness, there was this one bright ray as we'd been trying to get him paired up with a female finch for weeks now!
