A lorikeet is BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Like a cockatoo, though, they do get kinda loud (lesser degree of Fred). Almost got one when I went to get Kiko. Got her from an avian rescue place and the owner brought the lorikeet out. Splayed leg and I didn't think I could handle her. LOVELY, though!
Talking about the needs of the birds, though. Kiko will pout if I don't give her a headrub before she sleeps.
Ok, enough of this....I could go on with birds forever!

Once someone asked me...what does she (they, really, as I also have Fred) do? Dumb freakin' question. They are smarter than the dogs, communicate better and are also creatures used to companionship. Kiko screeches when I am not in the room and Fred, well, he is a handfull. Talks! Makes a big difference. Especially at 6am. "Hello Fred!" First greeting of every day....

After all, Kiko stays with me when I break out my guitar. Calvin runs from the room!

I like birds but have never had one as a pet.
