I just wanted to say thank you for allowing me to become part of this incredible site. I am very new to parrot parenting and to start things off I got one of the most difficult parrots there are, ...the demanding U2. He's actually very good natured and continues to amaze me everyday. I also am the proud friend of a bare eye cockatoo. He's a little bit more suspicious of me and doesn't trust me completely, and my cats even less. I am the third owner of both birds. Frankly, having always been a mammal person, I don't know what I am doing, but am eager to learn.
