Earlier this month, several of our volunteers were congregating around the cash register; everyone had a parrot and was working to socialize the bird. One of the volunteers was eating a special treat that had been dropped off for her. She had to leave for a few minutes, but told everyone not to eat her dessert.
While all of the humans listened and obeyed, the same cannot be said of the parrots, specifically Michael!
He stretched and stretched until the volunteer holding him listened to his body language and acquiesced; allowing him to wander on the counter. He immediately made his way to the dessert:He was only allowed a quick, small bite before being removed from this food that really isn't all that healthy for a parrot to eat. He actually had more on the outside of his beak (see below) than he ate.
Michael is still available for adoption. The volunteers fall more in love with him every day as he has such a charming personality. As always, though, he is extremely loud and will insert himself into any conversation by making interesting noises.
