@Happy2BeMe He is cute, just as long as one doesn't get to close. Apparently he bites, so I keep my distance.

Few years bac I had a parrot we named her "Piuli", she was beautiful cute and it's class. She became a member of our family. She use to utter some words which include my name and knock the door it was she who always responded but then I don't know what illness she had which killed her, we took her to doctors and to the vertinary hospital but nothing worked for her.

@subhajitsil6 So sorry for your loss. Losing a beloved pet is really hard.

@subhajitsil6 I don't think one ever fully gets over any loss.

@arthurchappell Yes. Very appropriate for a male bird

@Lupita234 I presume so. I don't really know too much about him, but he's lived at that nursery for a long time so they obviously take good care of him.

@AbbyGreenhill There are warning signs up that he bites big time so he was probably trying to coax me closer so that he could take a bite.

@AbbyGreenhill We've never had a bird in the house. My Mom always says they're carriers of germs. I don't think I'd feel comfortable in a house where they were flying around either.
I'm sure this bird's wings have been clipped, otherwise they nursery's customers could get hurt without doing anything wrong.

@Gina145 I am not a fan of birds. My cousin has had birds her whole life and lets them fly around the house - ugh, that creeps me out - all that bird poop can't be sanitary.

@jillybean1222 I love to look at them and take photos, but I don't think I'd want one as a pet. Not if they bite like this one does.

@chrissbergstrom I love to watch them and take photos, but I've never really wanted to own one. And I'm certainly not getting too close to this one because I know he bites.

Our family had a parakeet called chippy. He was green in color. That parrot sure looks like he's talking!

@dgobucks226 Maybe he likes the sound of his own voice but isn't too sociable.
