But now its like, "behold, George's cage... that still takes up most of the lounge and that he's never inside of until he goes in there himself for a nap!!"

Picture of George as a staff member at our church summer camp, for tax:

....just sayin....

Parrot things that just make sense: #2

Stealing my slippers from off my feet and then attempting to trade them back to me for snacks.

For context: I ALWAYS wear slippers, I hate not having anything on my feet. George knows this....

Parrot things that just make sense: #1
The bird telling my daughter off for offering to do the hoovering for once....because apparently thats MY favourite hobby!!!.......

For context, Ellie rarely hoovers because she has Misophonia, noise-making appliances trigger her.

Crashed out after a week of helping me run crafting sessions at Brimpton Church summer camp.

Put up the kiddies advent calendars.
By "kiddies" I mean: one of them is 22 years old.... the other is a parrot. 😆
As usual, Ellie's calendar does not run 1 - 24. She has to roll a D24 to see what she gets each day. Sweeties are available for days that she doesn't roll a remaining number.

As gross as this sounds, and I'd prefer not to have a bird puking on me, I can't deny that it's his way of being very loving, and I have to accept it as a sweet gesture. He's a little cutie snuggle-bug.

Wow I literally just got here, and my first post lands me judgement from a complete stranger...
George is not, and never has been wild. He was born and raised in captivity. His wings are not clipped and he can fly. He goes on charity fundraising walks and loves meeting and showing off to people.

Give me a minute for this old brain to figure out a new app. Here's George in the meantime:
