Steve and I could hardly believe our eyes when we saw what Chris Biro had trained a whole flock of Sun Conures to do at the Pirate's Parrot Show! People were instructed to hold a dollar bill up so the birds could see it. A conure would then fly over to the person and land on their hand, take the dollar, and fly back to the money jar, where they would drop the dollar! How's that for clever birds AND a wonderful way to get donations for Chris Biro's conservation organization, Bird Recovery International?! This was so popular that I think Chris could keep his birds busy the entire day getting donations on the fly!! It was so much fun to watch that I actually forgot to take pictures of Steve giving a dollar to a conure! :D
This is also a perfect picture for mentioning that I have a new work project in and I'm going to be reducing my posts and comments for the next couple of weeks until the project is done. Thanks in advance for my light/slow comments, I hate not being able to post and visit all of your photostreams when I'm crazy busy, but hey, I'm
Workin' for a Living! :D
