November 17, 201411 yr Active Members OK. I have a few questions. Why was a parrot at the funereal? What did it know? Could it not recite the TN Waltz in 3/4 time or any other? Was it present at the battle of New Orleans? Why or why not? Why would not a parrot swear at any funereal, never mind it's owner's? Can anyone own a parrot? After all they tend to far outlive humans. What would a cat say? Best regards, RA1
November 17, 201411 yr Can anyone own a parrot? I have a friend who owns -- i.e., loves, lives with and cares for -- five of them. She agrees wholeheartedly with what you said here.
November 17, 201411 yr Active Members Yes, I have a friend in CA who owns an African Grey by the name of Big Bird and an Amazon who just does whatever it wants to do. They are amazing in their interactions with not only the owner but guests. They walk around and sit on one's shoulder or whatever. They insist on being part of the action. I found out that the reason that bird cages are covered at various times is so that "others" can get some peace and quiet. "Big" birds are amazing and I enjoy and respect them a lot. Best regards, RA1
November 17, 201411 yr Active Members I knew a guy whose parrot used to perch on his shoulder whenever he lit up a joint. It loved to get a snort of smoke. Oddly enough, this behavior turns oput to be common enough that several pics of such are to be found on the net. Not clear whether the boy or the bird is getting a bigger kick out of this.
