122g--Excellent response
Got an excellent response out of Millie today at 124g after she hadn't eaten in a day and a half. Very focused and intent and responsive when called--as if aware that no food at 8pm might mean no food until the next morning. Minor vocalizations (chitters, not screams) of excitement when she was getting food rewards. Only hesitated one time and that was when I went out into the hallway, where she'd never flown into before. Afterwards, had her perched on the hand for about 15 minutes. She put a foot up, which is a sign she's getting comfortable. I was hoping I'd get the ultimate compliment of her wiping her beak off on my hand, but it didn't happen. Looooots of beak grinding after her feeding. I'd forgotten how much kestrels tend to beak-grind.
