Living but Maybe not Learning

 Meet Hanzi. 

He is one of my feathered friends.  He entered our family first as my mother's pet and now resides with us.  His first years were very quiet.  He sat, ate and sat again. Rarely did he fly.  Never did he get into mischief. 

This is Hanzi's handiwork.  He is steadily chewing at the perch of the swing that he prefers to rest upon.  Clearly he did not learn from the first perch that he chewed through.

While the saying goes 'live and learn', when this perch breaks - will he learn?
