That was cool? Thanks. I really didn't want bird claws tearing my shirt up.
[Lucy felt a little guilty at making the macaw fly off, but she was more relieved at Pen being okay. The lorikeets on her arms didn't seem bothered, chirping to themselves.]
...don't mention it.
[She did shoo the one pulling at her hair away finally, though. The others could stay.]
[Lucy offered the seed cup to the inquisitive heron...ibis thing, who took a look, an experimental peck, and then turned up its nose. Beak. Lucy huffed at it under her breath.]

Yeah, I think maybe so we don't have any more incidents.
[Or freak out a kid or something.]
Maybe reptiles next?
