00:00She helped me write books, basically, but nothing that she writes is useful.
00:08She loves the computer.
00:13Come out. I need to shut up. Come on.
00:17She has to be under my fingers all the time.
00:23She is a major character in one of my books, actually, because she's just too funny.
00:30Do you want to come in?
00:33One day, we'd had a huge storm, and I saw this little ball of fluff.
00:38She had all of her tail feathers and her flight feathers ripped out.
00:43I'm part of a wildlife rescue group in South Australia.
00:46So I picked her up and brought her home to rehydrate her.
00:49Out of the rain.
00:55The next few days, she just kind of imprinted on us.
01:00She'd come and try and nestle in against your neck.
01:05The first time she flew off, she was gone for two days.
01:10Then she came back, and she just came to the door, demanding to be let in.
01:14She was so happy and relieved to be back.
01:23She has every opportunity to leave, but she's chosen to make us her mates for the time being.
01:30And I know that it will end, that she will go off and find her own mate.
01:34So I'm just really careful to appreciate that she's chosen to let me be part of her life.
01:40And I know that she's chosen to be part of her life.
01:41I know that she's chosen to be part of her life.
01:42I know that she's chosen to be part of her life.
01:43I know that she's chosen to be part of her life.

01:48I know that she's chosen to be part of her life.
01:49I know that she's chosen to be part of her life.
