In my days as a farmer

The moment Xia Dongli entered his house, he thought he had traveled to Hog Oz.

There were six owls standing up and down in the yard of their house. They were originally looking in the direction of the yard, but when Xia Dongli opened the door, the heads of these owls turned 180 degrees in unison.

Although he knew that the owls' heads turned quite a lot, he couldn't help but feel a sore neck at first glance at this scene... well, even though he didn't see the necks of these owls.

Xia Dongli looked at them hesitantly, and then at the object they were staring at at first - Xia Dongli's puppy Mi Li and the young bird in its mouth.

Um? ! !

His hand softened, and the egg he was carrying almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Xun Yao, who happened to be close, quickly caught it.Xia Dongli hurriedly put the egg on the ground gently, for fear that any movement he made would disturb their rice grains. It doesn't matter if the rice grains are frightened, but if it accidentally closes its teeth after being frightened, Xia Dongli will be dragged to have a heart-to-heart talk.

All owls are secondary, even owl cubs.The owner is responsible for the dog causing trouble. If it was in a wild environment, it would be excusable, but now he is the one who picked up the bird. Not to mention a crime of improper storage, it must be inescapable.

"What's going on!" He grabbed Xun Yao's fingers so nervously that his toes were fighting, "Why did the rice grains suddenly bite the kittens? What's the matter with these owls?"

Xun Yao squeezed his hand in the palm of his hand to signal him not to be nervous: "The three pairs of big birds have all lost their babies. When they heard that we have cubs here, they came to recognize them, but Mi Li refused."

Xia Dongli looked at the six big round faces, and at Mi Liwang who was trying to bathe the chicks with his big tongue and saliva, his expression was blank.

Although the chicks at home were brought back by Dami and Xiaotian, Mili spends more time with them at home, who is currently going through growing pains on vacation.

The chicks grow at different paces, and the one who gets along closest to Mi Li is the little owl at home.

Of course, Xia Dongli raised the owl in a high place at first, and he also arranged the largest nest for the two cubs.But owls at this age are full of exploration and challenges to the world. When Xia Dongli wasn't paying attention, they jumped from the sky.

As the cubs of top predators, although their small fur wings can't fly yet, they can effectively provide them with the power to glide and avoid falling injuries.The kittens landed steadily, and then relied on instinct to find shelter on the ground, and then they set their sights on the rice grains that were resting at that time.

It may be attracted by the dog's high body temperature, coupled with the fact that the dog's hair is a little dry during the moulting period, the young birds mistake the dog's hair for a haystack.After discovering that the rice grains are very friendly, these Maojiu people rubbed over and pulled a small amount of the rice grains' hairs, and then nestled inside to keep warm.

With the two little owls as role models, gradually, the little birds in the family regard the rice grains as godfathers.

Therefore, Mi Li often has the experience of waking up in the afternoon and being surrounded by birds, and just like Da Mi at the beginning, after discovering that she was being used as a mat, Mi Li also froze in place, and had to ask the owner to take the Maojiu away one by one. Then it dared to get up.

Mi Li is still a child. Although there are many dogs in the family, he has no playmates of the same age and is the youngest cub. Naturally, he is very excited to have a small partner, so he naturally does what all children will do— — Don’t let your friends go home!

As a dog who knows the world by smell, the way to prevent big birds from recognizing their relatives is naturally to lick all the little birds - as long as the smell is licked off, the mother bird will not recognize her own bird!

Xia Dongli who successfully got the idea of ​​rice grains: =口=

"Rice grains." Xia Dongli called out in an unprecedentedly gentle voice, and then walked towards the pup staring at the pressure of the six raptors, "Rice grains, come, spit it out."

"Hmm~" The thin and deformed dog in the embarrassing period glanced at Xia Dongli, sucked the bird in his mouth with some reluctance, then turned his head away, expressing with actions that he didn't want to vomit.

A vein burst out on Xia Dongli's forehead. He reached out and groped under the table, and found Dami's beloved teething stick. He shook the teething stick in his hand: "This, do you want to eat?"

"Oh?" Mi Li tilted her head, and suddenly became interested.

This is the elder brother’s favorite toothbrush. Mi Li also wanted to bite into it, but the elder brother said that Mi Li was not old enough to eat this, so he couldn’t try it, even if Mi Li said he would just bite it and not eat it.

Is the master now allowing the rice grains to be eaten?

The puppy flicked his tail and stood up cheerfully.Xia Dongli shook the molar stick twice in the air, then moved it to Mi Li's nose, and when Mi Li habitually opened his mouth to pick it up, he quickly took out the baby bird from its mouth.

The rice grain, which was biting the molar stick but lost its little friend, was stunned. It immediately rubbed against Xia Dongli's leg and yelled, but Xia Dongli licked the dog's head and put the dog's head aside.

"Cub, a little bird has to learn a lot of things when it grows up. We humans can't teach these things. Parents must be able to teach them, you know?" Xia Dongli said while taking a towel to wipe off the young bird. .

This young bird was indeed a raptor's cub, and I didn't see it so scared when it was held in its mouth by a dog just now.After being caught by Xia Dongli, it pecked at the wet gray-white fur with its milk-yellow beak, like an elegant lady combing her hair slowly and methodically.

Maybe it was because the claws couldn't grab a suitable branch, so the young bird curled its claws into a ball, and then sat down in Xia Dongli's palm, allowing humans to serve it.

What a calm bird!

Even though he thought so, Xia Dongli couldn't help laughing out, even ignoring Mi Li angrily snatching away the molar stick.He carried the fluffy owl to the yard, placed it with another juvenile owl obediently in the nest, and put it a little farther away from the exotic owls, then backed away by himself.

Then the six owls looked at each other, and one owl with a more anxious personality spread its wings first and flew towards the young bird. It seemed to be sniffing the young bird, but also seemed to be observing it. Neither chick responded to it.

The owl, who didn't know whether it was the father or the mother bird, uttered a sad cry and flew out of the small brick house. At the same time, another bird followed it, which was obviously its mate.

Clearly, their offspring were not saved, and this too-sad breeding season was over for them.

The second couple was not affected by the former. They seemed to be very confident that the two cubs were their own babies. They spread their wings and flew to the nest silently. a little mouse.

Um?etc?Isn't such behavior considered coaxing?What's the difference between this mouse and a lollipop? !

The little owl who reacted faster than Xia Dongli was the little owl whose hair was licked by rice grains. It raised its head almost instantly, bit the little mouse in its mouth, raised its neck again and again, and swallowed it smoothly. Down.

For owls that eat a lot of food, chewing slowly like a large raptor is obviously not very beneficial, and their main target is mice with less meat and thin skin, so they have evolved a special way of eating—— The owl will swallow the prey whole, the meat and internal organs will be digested, and the bones and fur that cannot be digested will be excreted with the feces and become hairballs one by one.

Yes, owls also emit hairballs.

An important step for young owls to become adults is to swallow whole voles caught by their parents.

Seeing the little owl eat a prey in three or two bites, the big owl immediately felt complacent, raising its head as if proud of the excellence of its own child, but in the next moment it was followed by the other two standing beside it. Attacked, and then it was kicked away by two large adult birds.

"Xiao~" Ni Zukai, you shameless one!

The two most calm owls looked at them with disdain, and moved closer to the two cubs.The little cub jumped and rubbed against the big bird's cheek, and then it showed its bulging belly to its parents.

Obviously, it is proud of cheating a mouse!

Two big birds nudged them intimately, then spread their wings to drive away the remaining owls, and finally they landed on a tree outside the fence of Xia Dongli's house, and called Xia Dongli a few times. After the sound, they both closed their eyes and rested on the tree.

etc?What does this mean?

Xia Dongli looked at Xun Yao hesitantly, as if asking for his opinion.Xun Yao blinked his eyelashes slightly, and there seemed to be thousands of words written in his eyes looking at Xia Dongli.

"Is it going to eat a big family?" Xia Dongli was shocked, and his expression changed when he saw the two birds outside, "Bah, bah, bah, what a big family, our family has no food left!"

Xia Dongli, who has been raising cubs for two days, knows how edible these two cubs are. The two of them can eat about 200g of fresh meat in one meal. They have to eat several meals a day, and they even choose fresh ones to eat He couldn't eat pork. If it wasn't for Xia Dongli's embarrassment, he would have wanted to apply for reimbursement from the Forestry Bureau.

And put the cubs in someone else's house, how come these two birds have such big hearts!

In fact, it’s not that the parents of owls are big-hearted. For owls, it is very common to have to change the feeding position during the brooding period because the cubs are eager to grow up. As for where to change, it depends entirely on where the cubs fall. .

Although the situation of the little cub this time is quite surprising, it was directly rescued by humans to the home.But for owls, it's nothing.

The relationship between humans and them is relatively close. Humans are good at raising mice (feeding), and they just like to eat mice. Relatively speaking, we have been getting along quite harmoniously for thousands of years.

In addition, the two of them have also observed the attitude of this family of humans, and they are sure that none of the humans in this family will harm the cubs.Therefore, the cat parents and cat mothers have an attitude of neither approaching nor rejecting Xia Dongli's family, and are very calm.

Ahem, to be honest, this owl couple also jumped out of the nest when they were young, and then stayed under the tree to be fed by their parents.The couple met when they were strolling under the nest, and they also passed each other's parents' feeding→_→.

Yes, they are actually childhood sweethearts who grew up together, which is extremely rare.

Owls are lone rangers except during the estrus period. Not to mention cats from different litters, even brothers and sisters seldom cuddle together.

It's not that they don't love each other, it's just that as top predators, owls need enough basic food to feed themselves, but their flying ability is not strong, so their territory is relatively narrow.

So it is almost impossible to feed two owls in one territory, especially in seasons when food is scarce.So this couple has been maverick cats since they were young, and it is not surprising that they are now putting their children in foster care in human homes.

No surprise meow!

Xia Dongli, who was woken up by the sound of the owl's claws scraping the glass for the third time in the middle of the night, became a little irritable. He simply opened the window for the owls so that they could fly in and out directly, and then hugged the quilt under the quilt. Got to the next room.

"A Dong?" The man on the bed was startled by the sound of the door opening. He stood up and watched Xia Dongli angrily stuff his pillow next to him, and then piled up the quilt.Not long after, a sullen Xia Dongli grew on his bed: "They are too much!"

Xia Dongli said angrily: "They can obviously fly silently, but they always hit the glass. I put a note on the glass to remind them, and they still have to hit each time."

Xun Yao moved towards the wall to make room for him.But the single bed is only so big, and the two of them were stuck together through the quilt. Xia Dongli was in a bad mood after being woken up many times, but he couldn't help but smell the light and pure agarwood on his boyfriend. I yawned.

Xun Yao's Jiangzhen Fragrance is the one he uses the most. Although the quality can only be regarded as the middle grade among connoisseurs, whether it is the unique almond fragrance or the slightly sweet frankincense and floral fragrance, it is just right, and it smells clean and warm.

If you want to describe it, it's like the aroma of flowers and plants steaming under the sun, and it's like the smell of fluffy and soft bedding in the sun. In short, he likes the smell when it touches Xun Yao's body.

Ever since he discovered that Xun Yao was particularly talented in perfumery, Xia Dongli simply handed over the task of making incense to Xun Yao.Facts have proved that Xun Yao has indeed done a great job.

Xia Dongli couldn't help leaning over there again, and then as if being bewitched by the breath, he suddenly raised his head and kissed the corner of Xun Ao's lips. The young man also lowered his head, and Xia Dongli In a daze, he quietly kicked off the quilt that Xia Dongli carried.

The next day, when Xia Dongli clutched his waist and went back to his own room to get clothes with difficulty, he was shocked to find that the owl couple had used his room as a resting place, and the two birds were standing on the ground. Dozing off on his laptop screen.

Xia Dongli's gaze was fixed on the sharp claws of the bird of prey, and he felt as if he heard the painful moan of the poor laptop.

Xia Dongli: "..."

He silently opened the office phone of the Forestry Bureau: "Hi, I'm Xiaoxia from Xiaojin Village, the one who came to report to the owl yesterday. Yes, it's me. I want to ask, if the bird of prey broke my computer, what can I do?" Applying for compensation? It's not a cub, it's a big bird, and the big bird has found it. Okay, I'll take a photo right away, and I'll send them over together in the afternoon...huh?"

Not knowing what was said on the other side, Xia Dongli was stunned.

"What's wrong?" Xun Yao was holding the quilt out of the room to dry, when he saw her boyfriend froze in place, with a look of disbelief after being shocked.

"The people from the Forestry Bureau said that if the parent birds are being fed, we should not send them there, just provide a quiet and comfortable space." Xia Dongli turned his head slowly and looked at his room.

His beloved little nest has the most blackout curtains, the most soundproof bed, the warmest bed, and a series of otaku's favorite laziness devices, and even an automatic water dispenser, which is also first-class for otaku cozy.And now, the owl couple have also taken a fancy to his room.

It looks so cute, but it turned out to be a robber!Is there any reason! ?

Do you think you can really do whatever you want because you are cute? !
