Forty.

First partridges- they were lovely, really, so talkative and they'd never been in the castle before- and now turtle-doves

Eaten? By what?

What happened in the castle? One of those "events" again?

[magicofthewild]

Oh! By us, I suppose. They're just fair frightened, and I would be too.

I think it's an event, but I like this one. There's birds everywhere!

[nordic_tiger]

I guess I could understand their feelings. Though, none of us eat birds, ja?

Everywhere everywhere? [surprised] Even in the bathroom?

[magicofthewild]

Well, I eat turkey, and chicken. I suppose they think they're next.

No, I haven't spied one in the bathroom yet. But you never know!

[redwhiteandhero]

You would like it.

[magicofthewild]

You mean you don't like it, Alfred?

[redwhiteandhero]

They keep pooping on my stuff! And one of them bit me!

[magicofthewild]

They keep relieving themselves on my things too, but I don't mind.

Well, how would you feel if you were suddenly in a strange castle?

[dofaye]

I'm suddenly appreciative that I went home for the holidays.

[magicofthewild]

You don't like birds, then?

[dofaye]

On a walk through the woods, yes. Having them inside a castle sounds significantly less pleasant.

Is Hogwarts infested with birds... frequently?

[magicofthewild]

Well, I find it enjoyable, but most people don't like animals as much as I do.

Not usually. I've never seen birds like these before, at least.

[gryffindorbraid]

Eww...

[magicofthewild]

It's not that horrible, really.

[gryffindorbraid]

But it's messy.

[magicofthewild]

Well, I said I'd clean it up.
