More about Bert!

Bert, our Senegal parrot, does not like green beauty masks. Last night I had one on and he freaked out. He flapped around his house and squawked. I went out of the room right away and he calmed down. Now we know not to do that again. We changed his toys the other day and one of them has a bell on it. We can hear him as he dings it but when we go to look at him he stops when we get in there. It is very hard to sneak up on him because the floor creaks and he is a very good listener. Bert also really likes peanuts. I think he likes the salted ones better than the unsalted ones. He holds them in his left foot and slowly pulls off pieces of shell and nibbles out the nut. He also like popcorn, but most of it falls apart while he tries to eat it.
