Where are all the Parrots?

One thing that Adventureparrot has learned is that parrots are not often seen in public! We were very surprised how many people have told us they have never seen a parrot! We can only assume it's because it's not as simple as a dog or some cats that can be on a leash and temporarily left in a car or attached to lamp post while their companion heads in  to grab a drink or use the restroom quickly! We haven't bumped into any public parrot recreational parks yet either! 

Within 20 minutes of walking in #buffalobayoupark in #houston a photographer @simoncroberts with #nationalgeographic was taking photos of the worlds most amazing parks and asked if Adventure Parrot would like to be photographed. 10 minutes later Simon had a ladder set up with light reflectors using his massive camera he started taking several photos of this colorful Greenwing Macaw! (Check out the photo of Simon and Adventureparrot on the previous blog post)

Parrot owners.... Take your parrots out :-) you never know who you will run into! And parrots are the best ice breakers to meet new friends too!!

What we have found is most people are curious and fascinated by large parrots seen in a public parks etc.

For the curious... Parrots are very easily patio friendly just like dogs. We have found that most places allow "well behaved " exotic birds! When a place serves food...its always better to politely ask if you can sit on their patio...They can stay in a shopping cart naturally too! They love to hold onto the handrail of shopping carts while you shop! When the occasional accident happens on the floor. A quick wipe with a napkin is all it takes.

 

Parrots love to socialize! Many parrots want to travel with you in your vehicle too! A well behaved parrot is a great traveling companion as long as he has lots of space and appropriate temperatures in vehicles, buildings and outdoors! Adventureparrot has not used a cage in many years! 

Parrot owners... Bring your parrots to meet @adventureparrot as we travel the USA!
