Hi Elizabeth,
 EL> I have an Umbrella Cockatoo, Roxanne, who could pitch for the yankees! 
 EL> The cockatiel, Natalie, has learned to say "tsk, tsk, tsk", when I walk
 EL> over to Roxanne's cage to sweep the "foul balls" up!  I just keep a
 EL> dustpan and broom next to the cage.
I do. When it gets really outrageous I just take out the food bowl for a 
couple of hours.
 EL> patience and a LOT of cuddles seem to have fixed that.  So I too feel 
that
 EL> if the worst thing she does is fling a few Pretty Bird Pellet fastballs 
my
 EL> way, I'm doing well!
Ya got that right.
Boomer does a srange thing. I buy shelled walnuts and when I give her a half 
she takes it and rubs it against her chest. It's sort of interesting to 
tch.
TTYL,
Fran
