Sooooo moody. Today, all is forgiven ( as if I actually did anything wrong). Last nites training was great, and Salty is begging for scratches, and trying to steal my wedding ring, and trying his hand at singing opera. In other words back to his usual self. I just wonder - am I the mother/father bird, and he will try to distance himself from me when puberty sets in? Or is he just a friggin moody Amazon? We are almost ready to take a new video - waiting on 2 new tricks and for me to write a narrative to go along with them. I see these youtube vids, where the bird does on trick, 2 tops and the vid has thousands of hits. Meanwhile Salty is doing at least a dozen if not more, and he only has a couple dozen hits. Salty, come on man, I am planning on retiring on the $$$ we will make on your wonderful abilities.
Mean while, we have been watching parrot videos every nite, and Salty always introduces himself to the birds on screen, its pretty funny. Then he asks me if its a PRETTYBIRD a BIRD, a PRETTYBIRD. Stop jewel thief, Stop! Honest officer, it was a green blur, headed right to the jewelry cases.
