Okay he's been with us since September. In that time, he's become a total daddy's boy. I absolutely needed that after the loss of my boy, Nuke. He's a rescue, and I truly don't know for sure who rescued who.
Introducing... Marshall! Yes, the previous owners had kids, and they named him. They also had no clue about the breed and their needs and... idiosyncrasies. Kinda like parrots, they're definitely not for everyone, but after 8 of them over the past 30 years, they're our favorite.
Our dogs all come to work with us every day, so you can safely say we're very bonded, but in the same breath, they get lots of socialization that way. It's awesome to be able to do that. (Yes, birds come too sometimes, but only during warm weather) Marshall gets to spend much of the day in my office with me, and always wants to be close, unless there's a nice sunbeam shining on his bed.
I've recently been promoted by my goober of a dog. I'm now officially his chin rest

Like I said, he loves to be close, so he's there behind me in my chair. A. LOT.

And of course, 60+ pounds of him can manage to fit (and sleep) almost anywhere...

Personal space... Y'all think parrots have no concept?

One of those video/story things at the top of the FB page came up. I hate that I can't save or send the clips. Not that I've ever really had reason until now, but it'd be nice. I managed a screenshot in the middle of the clip. Yup, Marshall and the photographer! 
Kinda looks like he's missing his dad here a bit though, so I hope you get to go to NYC with him!
