I just watched the PBS show "Nature" segment on Parrots again, for the
third time. There's an African Grey (I think...) in there making the
"passing gas" sound. Hmmm...I wear hearing-aids and at times they make
feedback squeals. I hope my parrot doesn't pick that up (when I get my
parrot, that is...) as it tends to drive people batty...and I'd have
trouble knowing if it was me or the parrot squealing. :)
Lots of "for sale" ads in the local paper again from people trying to
get rid of various parrots. One ad has a moluccan 'too and cage for
$500. Makes me wonder what's wrong with the 'too, or what's wrong with
the owners.
BTW did you see the CBS news story on Ebola last week where they said
that some researchers in SC theorize that Ebola cycles through birds?
