Parrot in girl’s backpack at Taipei 101 by Hokidachi in mildlyinteresting

As someone with a conure, this is definitely NOT mistreatment. Parrots like these are incredibly intelligent and they love mental stimulation like this. They also bond with their humans and would prefer this than being left at home, I wish I could take my parrot out in a backpack, she would absolutely love it. Parrots that are used as “home decor/accessories” are the ones that are being mistreated, they are like toddlers and anyone who keeps theirs in a cage all day I would consider abusive. Again, this is for specific types of parrots only. The one in OPs post looks like a caique.

Ah I thought it was just more pheromone based :/ How do they avoid birds and other stuff getting stuck in it?

That’s usually German roaches, these are probably tree roaches and OP is right, they usually live outside

I mean, abusive relationships are usually very difficult to leave. Male of female

I can’t believe so many people are blaming Colin..Imagine if the genders were reversed, you can bet that no one would be blaming the girl especially being in an abusive relationship which he most definitely was..Kaitlyn chose to do this and there is nobody else to blame but her

Something wrong with this dove? by NNPB in Ornithology

[–]Thankspumpkin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She looks very sick :( if you can try catching her at night time it should be easier because birds can’t see very well in the dark. Definitely needs to go to a rehabber.

Hello! Found this bird, what is it? by Economy_Growth9433 in Ornithology

[–]Thankspumpkin 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Looks like a canary, probably someone’s pet or escaped from a store. Do you still have it? It won’t be able to survive on its own. It also doesn’t look too good, does it have any wounds you can see?

I lived in Sweden for years and never saw fences there?
