A fully domestic parrot

[Kiwibird]

I have mentioned before that Kiwi, while he loves going outdoors, is not fond of "natural perching surfaces". I've tried putting him in trees and bushes, but he doesn't want anything to do with it. He is a real he-diva about it, but we have this beautiful flowering bush in the yard and I couldn't not get some pictures of him in it. Kiwi was not amused:20:

You want me to sit in THAT? You're kidding right?

Uuuuugggghhhhh.....

Ok mommy, get your picture. I know I'm a pretty boy and blend in beautifully here and will begrudgingly (very begrudgingly) pose for you.

OK, you got your picture, now GET ME OUT OF THIS *FILTHY* BUSH!!!

You would *think* a parrot would enjoy exploring some natural surroundings, but not our guy! He will take a pedi-perch in his roomy cage to sitting in a bush ANY DAY.

Kiwi is looking mighty handsome in that hydrangea. Good thing he's not into natural woods and/or flowers, cause the hydrangea wouldn't have agreed with him. :32:

I would have to be more careful, but I know my bird and he wanted out of that bush ASAP. Chew it? He didn't even want his feet to touch it

The noises he was making would indicate (in bird language) words not forum appropriate:54: I had to 'clean it up' for the captions These are not direct Kiwi quotes, that potty beak
