Watching Labs is better than people watching sometimes. They go from active n energetic to "feed me feed me" & then to sleep!! Love how the parrot feeds her & tries to boss her around.

Only the parrot refuses to see things her way, even though he weighs about 1/200th. In return, she ignores his existence, but loves hanging around the cage. Parrots are messy eaters, but clever as well. He actually throws food on the floor for her to chase.  He even calls her by name, and tries to order her around ("sit!" "move over!" "basket!"), but luckily she is deaf now at 13 years old.
The interactions are a constant source of amusement. |
