Clay Lick in Peru

[JillyBeanz]

In one of the grey rooms there has been a discussion about foods that contain toxins and the fact that parrots often eat clay - this video shows exactly that - Amazons having their dessert!

I love the noise they make - this is obviously their "happy time" and the squeaking and squawking is fab!! Mind you - not sure that I'd like it going on in the house!!!

Thanks Jill for sharing that. I LOVE how they fan their tails out to chase the other amazons away.....just like Nilah does to me when I tell her it's time for bed! She also does it to try and play with my other 2 greys, but they aren't interested in her invitation. :blink:

:ohmy: The only tail fanning you see from Salsa is her running from Joeys cage after stealing his food, with Joey in hot pursuit of Salsa's tail...:laugh: Jay
