Wow, this is amazing....the way they enjoy their freedom and wild life, it makes me wonder, do we have the right to take that away, just to have them with us. I mean we do give them lots of love and care, probably more food than they get in the wild, but still, where would they be happiest...???

I love this video - and like Dan I've viewed it a zillion times - it's such a sight to watch - it's just such a shame that the areas that they live aren't exactly "holiday proof" in order that we can go see it for ourselves.

I find it so cute how they are all whooping and hollaring...and then the end where there are just hundreds in the sky. It's awesome. Makes me appreciate my little baby even more...if that is even possible. :)

It is a great video, it makes Paco go wild with vocalisations every time he hears it... Which does leave me with guilt. I reconcile my guilt with how spoiled he is, and with his general happiness that he displays, but at the same time I see how he looks out the window... I'm afraid I'm not qualified to say which life would be a happier one for him, here with me, or flying fee with a flock. What I do know, he was bred, I had no control over that, someone was going to get him, and it just happened to be me, who could offer him a good life, which then causes me to consider that by my wanting him, I create a market... What a tangled web.

This video plus other similar ones of greys and other parrots can be used as an information source when the subject of food is brought up ( high quality food )which people worry about. Notice that they're scavengers similar to many other parrots?

Yep, looks like they would eat most anything in their natural habitat, whatever is available so it does make you think when we worry so much about what we are feeding them to ensure they get their nutritional needs.

 

Thanks for sharing that with us Jill.
