Class went mostly well today. The process that the other students were doing with slaughtering and processing the chickens was rather disturbing, but other than that it went quite well, I think.
They were very pretty chickens.
Joshua helped out, including "scratching" the coconut on the mbuzi.
The highlight of my day was when the guards gave Joshua this Pigmy Kingfisher. I think it must have ran into a window.

In Joshua's hand. |
After quite a while and many pictures it flew a tiny bit and looked much better.
He is feeling better now. |
It was then placed in a box and we were taking it back to our banda. I was hoping it would be well enough to take care of itself. I took it out of the box and it immediately flew to a nearby bush. It looked so different and so much better than when we first saw it. I am so thankful! It is a beautiful bird.
Pigmy Kingfisher after he felt much better and flew into the bush. |
I am looking forward to Heaven when all the animals will be safe from us and other harm. Then we can enjoy them all and they can enjoy us too!
We have 5 more days of class next week!
We have received another request for a change in paperwork, but I have sent that off. That is the latest. Thank you again for all the prayers and support.
I guess your African pygmy kingfisher DID fare better than our golden-crowned kinglet.
