Very excited. In point 11 of my “Mayor of the Avenue” interview I mentioned that Ara has chosen not to leave her cage anymore. Well lately I’ve noticed her being really interested when I sing “This Old Bird” (think “This Old Man” - the children’s counting song). So after her nightly hand feed, during which she sits on a perch on her cage door, I linger and sing to her. She has been inching her way towards me, so I’ve been sort of leaning in and trying to make my shoulder an extension of the perch.
So look at her, sitting on my shoulder
Who knows if she’ll repeat this anytime soon, but I’m pretty happy as of right now. She got a few sunflower seeds as her bravery reward.
