Today I went to talk to my birds, including Marv, my African grey. I pushed a trash can with a 30-gallon bag in it over to his cage in case he pooped.
While I was talking to my other bird, I looked over and saw Marv hanging from the cage door by one toe. He turned loose and dropped into the trash. He has been down there for ten or fifteen minutes, and he seems very happy about it.
Isn't this a little weird, even for a parrot? I thought they liked high places and light, to they could get away from threats.
