Dinner chaos

Or, why we usually eat in the living room.

Friday night, we were in a hurry to eat dinner, so we decided to eat at the kitchen table. What a mistake! Parrots love routine, and we normally eat in the living room. This means that they each have their own cage and they usually eat their dinner at the same time we eat ours.

In the kitchen, all bets were off. The greys and Beeps kept flying over in an effort to help themselves, Calypso and Daphne were calling to us from the living room, and, as you can see, Rocky made himself at home.
Thomas was fine when Rocky was hanging out on his lap, but he didn't stay there for long. Pretty soon he was climbing up his shoulder, down his leg, etc. Apparently it's rather distracting to eat while a macaw is climbing on you!
