I love how pretty this bird is, but I agree about the squacking!

Oh yeah, this new rate button sucks. It's so hard for me to coordinate the touch pad on my laptop to hit those 10 stars just right without the 'bookmark' thing popping up.

I got it though, I gave you 10 stars!

My aunt and uncle had a parrot named 'Billy Bones'. When he got loud and boisterous my cousins and I would cover him with this cage blanket and lie on our backs smoking a joint and blowing the smoke into his cage. It shut him up fast. :O)
