Whats the funniest behavior your birdy does?? Batman: Hangs on the top of his cage with both his legs coming backwards THROUGH his wings and then sticks his head through his legs. Have to get a pic because that explanation just doens't cover it. Never had a parrot, grey, cockatoo, or alexander do that before  |

I think I know what you mean because mine have done something I think is similar but a picture would be great.

I think, by what you've described, that Brody does the same thing! She will hand upside down and then stick her head between her legs. She looks like she is bent in half!  Brody also likes to *fly* upside down. She loves to lay on her back, cradled in my hand while I walk her around the house. While in *flight* she hangs her head over the tips of my fingers to look at the ground. I need to have my boyfriend video tape that sometime. Sometimes, while we're doing moving-flappies (to simulate flying) she will fall backwards and fly upside down that way too. That one cracks me up! |

Manzi has a hanging toy that he loves to attack. It is a very large toy (twice his size) so a lot of the time he ends up on the toy attacking it instead of on the side or top of the cage. After a while of attacking the toy he will start sticking his feet out trying to grab onto the side of the cage while hanging onto the toy with his beak. It is very funny because he will kick his little legs out for a full minute trying to grab onto the side and he is just out of reach. Eventually he will drop a perch below, just to climb back up and do the same thing.

The funniest thing I've seen Paco do so far is make a clicking noise while picking his foot up and down like he's snapping along with a song. It makes me laugh every time he does it.
The funniest thing I've heard him say/do is after he goes through a mimic coughing episode he'll clear his throat like he's preparing to spit, the only thing we miss with that is a spit noise. Also hilarious. These are things he has learned at his previous home.

Morocco did this thing the other day where he was hanging from the top of the doorway upside down by his feet and he was pushing the door open and shut with his beak. Then he let go with one foot, so he was hanging upside down by one foot, and he waved with the other foot, with the door still flapping. It was positively vaudvillian!
