Defiant Chick Stays Up Way Past His Bedtime
Three sources have confirmed that Scooter, a great crested tern chick from a small island in Sri Lanka, ignored his parents and stayed up long after his 7:30 bedtime.
“He just wouldn’t go to sleep,” says Rich Canberry, a tourist on holiday there at the time. “He was still awake in the early morning when the rest of the neighborhood flew off to work.”
Scooter is expected to crash big time at around 11 am.

Parakeets Prefer Mice to Trackpads
A consumer habits focus group conducted by Logitech found that parakeets generally prefer computer mice to track pads by a margin of four to one.
“Mice are much easier for them to maneuver,” says Sheila Daugherty, who headed up the survey. “There’s a lot more precision there, especially since parakeets don’t have opposable thumbs.”
While most parakeets only use computers for casual web surfing and email, the ratio shot up to seven to one when it came to power users – parakeets who do photo editing, video production, and gaming.
