I Can't Believe Jinx Taught Morgan THIS!  I am MOST excited about this video footage because it demonstrates observational learning better than I've ever been able to capture before.

Sometimes when faced with behavioral issues with our birds, we immediately quantify them as BIG problems, potentially unfixable problems.

Training Parrots Tricks in 2 Minutes!

Yes, I really did train my cockatoo, Bondi, how to wave in 2 minutes! And in a hotel room in Moab, Utah while on the road!

But she got it immediately.

The more you train your bird, the faster they will catch on to the next ...
