1. Parrots—Behavior.


Parrots are beautiful, they can fly, they are different from us, they are intelligent, and they remain mysterious. This book is written by authors who understand and love parrots in order to help foster a mutually beneficial and enjoyable relationship between parrots and their humans. We hope it can set up new parrot-human relationships for success and rekindle the joy that should be inherent in such relationships in cases where it has been lost. We intend to promote a deepened understanding and responsible attitude toward parrots in the wild as well as in captivity. We hope this will contribute to the welfare of parrots and help develop a respect for and appreciation of these fascinating beings.

Where did the intelligence that is manifested in nature come from? Can the current view be true, that inert matter (lacking consciousness) somehow ac...
