    Philippe and I have noticed that Ducki is very particular about how things should proceed when we first get home from work.

    1) One must scream as loudly and often as possible to ensure that the humans know that you are still in your cage
    2) Once a human releases the door lock, one must shun all human contact to establish that you are not impressed
    3) One must deposit a days worth of poo in an area judged most difficult to clean and/or reach.
    4) One must wave a ding-a-ling ball vigorously until a human comes to play fetch. If the human's fingers come too close, BITE
    5) One must strut back and forth outside the cage, then go back in the cage to eat food that has been there all day but only now became appealing
    6) When the human has comfortably established him/herself on the couch, one must commence bobbing and fluttering until the human is forced to act as a transport to the couch.
    7) One must demand neckrubs and refuse to be more than 5 feet from a human for the remainder of the night.

    He probably thinks I'm a very slow learner - boy do I have the scars to back that up! But we are going on almost a month now without any big bites (knock on wood).

    Actually, to truly be the diva parrot, Ducki needs to learn one more trick. This trick has been perfected by a certain umbrella cockatoo in my home. The trick is, to stay al . . . most out of the human's reach so that to give scritchies the human's arm is extended to a most uncomfortable level. Any attempt on the human's part to move the bird closer and to a more comfortable location must be thwarted at all costs! Very Happy
