Lifestyle

Relationships come in an infinite number of definitions, with time as the core ingredient. The quality of time spent together along a timeline of history. 

What we want from our companion is a relationship.

Parrots will be parrots, first. Second, don't take that bite personally.

Every time we interact with our birds, we give ourselves and them a moment to share our true selves.

Companion Parrots' simple reality. Forget rationalizing and romance. 

Slow down first. And remember it's step ups. They have two feet to plant before you move. Give them a chance to catch up to your ideas.

Understand a parrot's idea of boundaries.

Not everyone coming inside your home brings understanding.

No parrot is too old or too young to retool their vocabulary.

Stay inside the Golden Rule. Be honest. Be patient.

When we slow down and take the time to consider all the avenues and actions that happen throughout a day with our birds, we'll see the opportunities to communicate without saying a word.
