Relaxing with a Parrot Pal

Time to kick back and relax...I never do this without a bird to skritch! It's so calming to make a bird go into a coma. This big guy can be as cantankerous as a brat but a good head/neck skritch turns him into a blob of happiness. It's no optical illusion...this guy's head is upside down so that I can get that soft sensitive spot called the intermandibular space which is that hollow place under the bottom of the beak. This is quite prominent on a Hyacinth Macaw! Beaks are very sensitive and birds love to be skritched with your finger nails on the beak. But watch out! This can be construed as sexual. Don't get your bird too excited!
