Bird brain? by Addie Otto
Last week, we bought a pet parrotlet (think miniature parrot) and he has finally become comfortable enough around us to climb on us and fly around us. Except, I can't figure out if he loves or hates needlework! He thinks gold French knots are seeds and tries to eat them and chews on...
