And, the interrelationship of living things on this Planet is yet again demonstrated.
Yup, Parrots are an active part of the interaction...

Well this chart from Chicken Thoughts seems very relevant to this post and made me laugh so hard the first time I saw it because it's so accurate. lol

With utmost humility, my I suggest that we carve out a percent or two for food that winds up regurgitated onto doting parronts?

Great article!

Hm. it's been obvious to me from the beginning that Sunny Only drops the foods she likes. What she dis-likes, she avoids. Her intentions are quite clear. She obviously hopes to plant herself a Forest of Safflower-Seed, GreenBean, and Orange Trees!

HAHA--- so my mom always complains about this when we visit (and of course I sent her the story)...

Here was her reply:
"Hmm too bad you dont have a ground dwelling creature who would benefit lol! Hopefully, her seeds wont attract any!"

None so far and it has been years *knock on WOOD!!!!*****
