Advanced Bird Haberdashery, Wednesday, period 2

Duke was in far too good a mood for how little sleep he'd gotten last night, but, well. He'd had a hell of a lot of fun while not sleeping, and looked forward to having a hell of a lot more once class was over, so despite the fact that parts of his body were insisting that he should be back on his boat continuing to have that fun right now, he still managed to make it to the school building to set up his class.

He could hear the birds of the week screeching from halfway down the hallway.

"Right. That's one way to kill a mood."

He ducked into the classroom to find it lined with large, tastefully festive bird houses, wherein medium-sized, spooky looking owls were enjoying each others' company.

He posted two signs on the whiteboard this week. The first, as usual, was the class rules:

Class rules:
1. Do not eat the birds
2. Do not FEED the birds
3. DO NOT GET EATEN BY THE BIRDS
4. Protective gear must be worn at all times in the classroom
5. Do not disturb the horny birds


The second was a longer, somewhat more detailed note:

Good morning, students! This week we have several mated pairs of barn owls visiting us. They have heart-shaped faces and are apparently monogamous, so I guess the moose thought they were thematic.

We are going to make them baseball caps for some reason. There are instructions on the desk. I'd say you should wait for the birds to finish their business before trying to put hats on them, but apparently they only do this once a year, so maybe leave them to it, and just leave your finished hat offerings by their houses or something.

See you when this damn pollen thing's over.

Shuri, being the overachiever she was, made a matching set for the matching set of birds, took Educational Footage of the birds to traumatize her brother with and then left the class.
