-> You're right.  If I was brave enough to go back down there in Mexico
-> where I've seen flocks of 50-100 Amazons I could check that out!
-> 
I'm jealous, I wanna see the sky full of parrots, and HEAR them.  Kinda
scary down there, huh?  Maybe when we're all old and rich (yeah, right),
we could arrange a tour; there's safety in numbers, and Fran and I speak
un poco espanol.  
-> Sorry about the Lilac Crown.  That must've been one strange affair of
-> the heart.
->
-> He was blind, and really needed someone to pal around with.  The
-> great dane loved everybody!
Oh man, a blind Lilac Crown in love with a Great Dane.  Whatta story!
Romeo and Juliet in a cross-species kinda thing.  It would make a great
children's book, or movie, even.  I can see now why the attachment was
so strong that he just faded away when he lost his friend.
-> I guess so.  I learned not to try and mix parrots and business
-> offices. Too many people in and out 'confuse' amazons, I guess.  Mine
-> was sweet as could be before we brought the office into his home.
I know what you mean- parrots can be so sensitive to things you would
expect them to enjoy.  I put up Christmas lights, expecting my birds to
love the colors, and my grey, Nigel, responded with a round of plucking.
 :(
-> We've had two, and their disposition is outstanding.  They just seem
-> to LOVE being handled, and I've never had one offer to bite me after
-> they got aclimatized.  While they're almost like stuffed toys at
-> times, they are VERY funny when left to their own devices.
Sounds like my DYH, Zigs, she's a riot, and VERY sweet and
mild-mannered.  I've heard stories about other DYHs that had rather
aggressive personalities, though.  Now you've got me wanting a Lilac
Crown, BAD ELVIS!
-> Unfortunately, I'm substantially sans dinero and must look for
-> something I can afford on zero income.
Yo tambien. Que lastima!
                                                       TTYL, Jan
