Puzzle, one of the most adorable Weber's lories ever, was up to his tricks of entertaining us last week.
Nikki, a hybrid mini macaw, was being adopted. When her new owner came to pick her up, she dropped off some tasty treats for the volunteers to eat, including some delicious and fancy sandwiches.
Puzzle, who'd been wandering around the front counter, decided that these sandwiches were fascinating:
Despite his best tapping efforts, they remained out of his reach:
Because Puzzle, as a lory, requires a specialized diet, and especially because he has suffered from health problems due to a poor diet in his previous home, we didn't let him eat any of the sandwiches. Instead, after filming this video, we distracted him with something better -- attention!
Though we don't understand why, Puzzle has not yet been adopted. He's hoping he'll find the right home soon.!

Thanks for the video. Too cute!
Reminds me of what our cockatiel used to do. He was in the tv room with us a lot and saw us use the talkers to operate the tv. He'd always walk back and forth on the tv. After several months, he figured out where the battery door was on the remote and always tried to take off with the door! It was too heavy and he'd drop it every step, then pick it up-drop it again-- and it was just cuter than heck. It was like he was saying "Hey pay attention to ME and not the TV!!" lol
The poor little guy had an accident last year, so it was good seeing this, made me smile.
Yep, cute, thanks :)
