Parrot On A Hamper

January 6, 2010

I mean, everyone has parrots on their clothes hampers, right?

It’s like this, the other day I was taking a shower, and when I opened the bathroom door, this is what I saw:

African Grey Parrot sitting on a clothes hamper.

A-parrot-ly I was in the shower too long, and my little feathered kid missed me.  She’s like that – – if I’m out of sight too long and don’t answer her contact calls, she comes looking for me.

She’s also very nosy, so once she figured out I was still around, she decided to check out her surroundings a little more closely.

I rather image she crawled up the clothes hamper using the open spaces as a sort of jungle gym.  But getting back down, now that might be a little harder.

How do I get down?

As usual, I rescued her and carried her back to her cage.

But I’ve got to tell you, it’s a little disconcerting to come out of the bathroom and find a bird looking at you.
