birdboy Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Every once in a while my bird does something that baffles me. My bird insists on climbing this window I have.. it's about 3.5 feet tall and 2 feet wide.. it has vertical blinds on it which are up. So on the right side the two strings are hanging down that pulls the blinds up and down. Well I'm looking over at my bird wondering why he likes to climb the window edges... and I see him clinging upside down on to the freaking two strings that pull the blinds up and down.. I keep watching.. and he slides down the string with just his feet!!!! One foot on each string!!! He slid down half way really fast, then down a little more.. all of this while hanging upside down.. now he goes up and does it again!? How did he learn this??? It looks like one of those guys that goes down a rock with one of those ropes!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lidia Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 It's natural for them, they like to hang upside down. I am not sure why this is, but it is! Joshua being Batbird.<br><br>Post edited by: Lidia, at: 2007/07/19 08:46 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest briansmum Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 yes they love to climb and swing and hang on things, your bird is just playing, and he was clever to figure out he could do that. as long as he is not damaging your blinds or window, leave him to it lidia that picture is soooo cute and funny.. you should have entered in it in the competition. although thats an idea for the next one "best upside down grey shot" :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Bat Bird - I like it!! Birdboy - Could you get a photo of your Grey doing that and post it? We love photos here and yours sounds like it would be a great one to see :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 That is cute! Talon spends the better part of her day hanging upside down when she is playing. She hangs from one foot and swings back & forth. They do love to hang and play upside down. Fun to watch! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest briansmum Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 bri's not so good with the upside down yet, i think he finds himself in that position by accident then gets a bit panicky. he flung himself upside down on my finger the other day then had a go at me like i had done it! cheeky thing :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Jack will hang upside down in his cage sometimes, but I've never seen him do it anywhere else, and he always holds on with both feet. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
