BAR, in back of kennel. As soon as I and the puppet became visible to the bird, it began rowing and running towards me and jumping out of the kennel. The baby ran towards the center of the enclosure and had a brief close interaction with one of the fosters before turning around and coming back towards the puppet. I placed all of the prepared food on a block outside of the kennel and allowed the baby to self-feed the entirety of the meal. Upon re-entering the enclosure with the transport container, the baby ran towards me stopping at my feet before I put them in the container and transported inside to the incubator in KR2 overnight.
