Tihan - Yellow naped amazon (6+ years)
I usually leave all kind of seeds pellets and fruits in the cage of my birds.
I prefear watching their weight rather than strictly controlling the diet feeding pellets+fruits only (because they have the sense of taste too).
I realised Tihan has an interesting behaviour.
He takes an apple, deeps it into one kind of seeds and eats apple with seeds, like if it was a nutrition bar.
Then he takes a banana (or another wet/stiky fruit) and deeps it into another kind of seeds and eats it the same way.
Sometimes we will eat fruit as it is, sometimes he will take 2 small pieces of fruit in his claw and make sure to take a huge bite from both of them at the same time.
I got a "cooking" parrot
Tried to film, but he's camera shy and as soon as he sees it, he freezes.
Cheers!
