Crouching tiger hidden parrot


Published on Thursday 3 July 2008 11:33

TODAY'S online calendar picture shows a parrot perched on the back of a white tiger ornament in a Vale home.

Thanks to Laura Summers who said the tiger has become her pet parrot Meme's favourite place to perch.

Parrots, along with crows, jays and magpies, are some of the most intelligent birds, and their ability to imitate human voices enhances their popularity as pets.

Trapping of wild parrots for the pet trade, as well as other hunting, habitat loss and competition from invasive species, have diminished wild populations, and more parrots are threatened with extinction than any other group of birds.
