A Grey is a wild animal removed from the wild, bred to be companions. They are long removed from being able to take care of themselves but not so long as to forget at times they're still wild...so it's up to us to make sure we protect them. We're the reason they demand all this attention. We removed them from the wild. Jay

Can I choose the Cuban Amazon Parrot? I stake claim to this as I've seen it in the wild. Anyone else who wants to showcase this can meet me at a point agreeable to both and we'll have a handbag bash!

I propose to write about an extinct amazon - the Guadeloupe (amazona violacea). Have you covered that one already in a previous post?
Renate
The natural function of the wing is to soar upwards and carry that which is heavy up to the place where dwells the race of gods. More than any other thing that pertains to the body it partakes of the nature of the divine.
