Talk about an interesting mix of prompts! A rather color palette and happy song paired with the word "indifference." I wasn't sure what I was going to make at first, then the idea for an old beast trainer came to mind. Certainly she would be indifferent to the threatening mannerism of her beasts!
The beasts in question are a mix of a blue jay and lizards (chameleon and a horned lizard) as well as being slightly inspired by Trico from The Last Guardian.

How did her career as a beast keeper begin? Being a beast keeper is just something that runs in her family. Every few generations or so, one or two will pop up. It was just time for her to fill in the role that was predestined for her.
A Little Backstory:
One of the most famous (of infamous depending on who you ask) Magizoologist (person who studies magical creatures) of the Wizarding World is none other than New Scamander, but what history lessons did not teach was that he was not the only one. There were many before and after Mr. Scamander that made great strides in the field of Magizoology (the study of magical creatures). For example: Quong Po (1443 – 1539) was a Chinese dragonologist who studied the Chinese Fireball breed and discovered the uses of their powdered eggs. One of his decedents followed in his footsteps and studied to become a Magizoologist. Her name is Fang Cai (or as it is more commonly spelled in Britain Cai Fang – it is Chinese culture to place the surname first in many cases). While her ancestor had a passion for dragons, Ms. Fang prefers magical birds.
When she was younger she traveled the world taking notes and making sketches of all the magical birds. From the graceful Thunderbirds to the plump Diricawl, Ms. Fang did her best to find them all and take record of them. (Mr. Scamander’s notes did help but she happened to “perfected” them as she likes to put it.)

Yet in spite of all the magical birds she had studied over the years, none could compare to her favorite of them all: The Qingniao. These birds appeared throughout early Muggle Chinese history and mythology due to their beautiful colors and their abilities to carry messages much like an Owl but at quicker paces. Qingniaos are four-legged creatures who have feathers ranging in colors from blues, greens, blacks, and on occasion touches of red. One of the most famous of Muggle Chinese myths was of the Qingniaos who served under the Queen Mother of the West. (A three-legged one was her messanger while a single-legged one fetched her food.)

When Ms. Fang retired from her travels due to old age catching up with her finally she settled down back in a small village in China that had a conservation program for the Qingniaos. Poachers love to hunt these creatures for their beautiful feathers for quills, and sadly these creatures do not have much for natural protection other than their beaks and claws. Since she loves the species so much, Ms. Fang along with several other witches and wizards who shared a passion for these birds were able to not only pass laws to help protect the Qinqniaos but also were able to reintroduce some back into the wild so they could breed again.

It was close to her 80th birthday when she got a letter from one Headmistress Minerva McGonagall of Hogwarts asking if Ms. Fang would be interested in the position of Care of Magical Creatures Professor. Seeing this as a chance to not only give her a change of scenery (she was getting rather twitchy. That’s what you get I guess from traveling all over the world for thirty years) but to also make a new generation of young witches and wizards fall in love with the Magical Creatures that they share a world with. So she accepted the position, packed her bags, and headed for Britain. For a companion she took a young male Qingniao by the name of Hui (which means clever) along with her.

It’s not like Hogwarts has never seen a magical bird before, right?

You are the winner, congrats! I love how you wrote out the story in a informative history like manner, it showed the passage of time and the history of the creatures rather nicely!
