i sure wish we had some wild parrots here in the US! apparently there used to be, but they went extinct due to hunting...
at work there's a cockatiel. i whistle at him (her?) when i walk past, and he gets all attentive and whistles back. LOUDLY. today i approached his cage and stuck my finger in. he was a little shy, but warmed up when i reached the back of his head and started rubbing it. he nibbled on my finger when i would stop.
(birding rule #2: love on caged birds, and NEVER cage a USA wild native bird--they're protected by the feds!)
