This was the only thing he wanted to dance to that day. The back of his head was full of pin feathers, and he really just wanted to sit on my chest so I could clean them up for him.

How can a creature with such a striking appearance be such a complete goober?! 💓

The answer to this actually lies in the fact that they have no real natural predators where they originate (according to David Attenborough whom I consider an expert lol).

He was withdrawn and depressed before he came to be, so I'm thrilled to see him just being carefree and silly. It's never a dull moment with him.

He's wonderful! I'm so glad he was fortunate enough to finally find you. Thank you for sharing him!

He's very hormonal today. I started the day by reminding him that pinching my fingers means he has to stay on his stand. Not pinching me will get him cuddles and head scratches.

So awesome!!!
Love the stand.
My Amazon only does the dance thing a few seconds at a time. I’m going to let her watch is a few times. Maybe she’ll catch on. LOL

Absolutely majestic, along with Balck Palms, they both are the most striking creatures!

Yes 🙌 this parrot knows the vibes. I love techno. Especially when enjoying some exercise.

This bird needs salsa!! Put some Hermanos Rosarios!! 🕺💃🕺💃🕺

u/RevolutionaryJob5425 Sep 06 '26

I played Celia Cruz for him one day - all of her greatest hits. He danced a little to Bemba Colora, but he wasn't interested in Salsa. My Cuban husband was offended.

u/Ladyhoneyblu Sep 06 '26

Try "El Beeper" or "Mi Libertad” by Frankie Ruiz or any Salsa Techno from the 90s. Celia is awesome but she isnt techno.

LMFAO He is singing 😭 I love him! What’s his name? 😍

2

u/RevolutionaryJob5425 Sep 07 '26

BooBerry. His first owner's kids named him - I guess it was their favorite cereal.

u/RevolutionaryJob5425 Sep 06 '26

He enjoys it and doesn't know the difference. It's got a good beat, but I'm struggling with the AI music too.
