@artist01, @wisco. Just had to drop in to say Hi!! I’m so encouraged by your walking stories, and even though you can’t get out, you’re still thinking about walking!! So that means the wander lust is still with you. Giggle. At the risk of going totally off topic, I have to say I too, had an African Grey. He was one of the most cantankerous, ornery and entertaining companions! LOL. His name was Poe and similar to your birds, Laura, had an enormous working vocabulary and array of every sound imaginable from keys dangling, doors opening, squeaks in floors, microwaves, mimicking our infant daughter’s cry so I’d run in two directions, etc. Never a dull moment!
“Hi, my name is Poe Parrot. I can talk, can you fly?” Used to freak people out all the time. Enjoy the day ahead! Air Hugs! Lori.

I love Poe’s character, what a sweet bird!
Lori, thankyou for encouraging my wanderlust. Soon, soon.
I think there's going to be several of us parrot and pet lovers booted off this site for being off topic! Maybe we could start up an African Grey site? Lol.
Just one more sentence pleeeese...my two Greys were ornery, cantankerous and all that too, but mixed with the kissiest, sweetest, cuddliest moments. No telling which mood it would be. Lol.
But I loved them anyway!

@artist01, @wisco and @loribmt, your posts make me so much more appreciate the intelligence and antics of bird pets. My cousin would let out her pet canary when we were small knowing full well that varmit would fly straight for my head. As a result, inside birds have always frightened me but I love to hear and watch them outdoors. Thanks for these shares. I'm off to take a very chilly short walk to admire our feathered friends.
