Children in a school in Los Gatos, California read to an African grey parrot in order to gain confidence in their reading skills. Starbuck, the parrot of a parent volunteer probably really enjoys it to. Looks like the little Timneh is pretty into it!

I’ll admit it. I have a subscription to the newspaper, but I never read it. Although…never, is a strong word. I actually frequently get sucked into the newspaper when I’m lining the bird cages. (I wonder how many times this habit has made me late to work…) In fact, I think my parrots are used [...]

This economy is really getting to a lot of us. It’s tough to be living with so much uncertainty. The good news is that you can have fun and do it the cheap when you’re a parrot lover. Turn off the TV and let your parrot do his job…make you smile.

I wish I could give every one of you a book!
If you missed all the great stories check this post.
