Flying has impressed man ever since Icarus tried his hand at it. It's a different story that he couldn't make it. Many of us have wanted to fly freely in the air, without any inhibition or any traffic rules. I have always envied birds for their ability to soar so high and be so close to the world of the clouds. Birds have therefore always interested and impressed me. Parrot behaviour varies as much as mine would from yours. Some problems in parrot behaviour include biting, screaming and feather plucking. Each problem in parrot behaviour has a specific reason. Some parrots may develop phobias.

These parrots live in moist woodlands and on the edges of the grasslands. They primarily feed on seeds, fruits, and grains particularly the seed of locust beans and newly formed buds of a various trees.A Senegal parrot's diet should consist of a good quality seed mixture of nuts, seeds, lean meat, biscuits, fruits, and vegetables-either raw or cooked. Vitamin and mineral supplements are also given to meet the nutritional need of the parrot. Hand reared Senegal parrots are the most suitable pets because they are small enough to handle and can be placed in a medium sized parrot cage. All of the birds at Parrot Island were raised locally except for those raised by one out-state breeder. The primary breeder we used up until a few years ago was New World Aviaries
