Olivia got a new house

Olivia (Alyssa came up with this name), the baby finch that Ann brought back about 2 weeks ago, finally learned to fly. While I'm happy about the fact that Ann's rescue effects are working, this does create some headaches for me.

Eventually we want her to be a free bird again but apparently she is not ready yet. I certainly don't want to push her out and see a premature death. That said, having a finch flying around in the house is just beyond my comfort zone. I know the easy solution is to put her in a cage but I worry that will have some negative effects for her future release. Today I finally broke down and bought a cage for her. As sweet as she is, insisting on standing on my mouse/keyboard when I write my blog is just over the line.
