Kashmir Csaky dances with her hyacinth macaw, Gucci, who recently placed fourth in a national bird dancing competition.Kashmir Csaky started singing “I Heard It Through the Grapevine” as she danced in front of the large blue parrot standing on his perch.
Gucci, a hyacinth macaw, studied her for a moment and then began to dance, swaying in time with her music. He’d pause as the song tapered off, then continue his rhythmic bopping.

Red-masked / Cherry headed parakeet (Aratinga erythrogenys)
The bird enthusiast who chronicled the adventures of a flock of red-headed conures in his book "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill" knows most of the parrots by name, yet most of us would be hard pressed to tell one bird from another.

Gulliver left California in December on a 48-foot catamaran with his owners and their dog Snickers. They ran aground near Fanning, a tiny island 1,000 miles south of Hawaii, and the family managed to swim ashore with their pets.
Ara ararauna - Blue-and-Gold Macaw | in Rescue Monday, August 4, 2008 at 6:00 The Cape Parrot, Poicephalus robustus robustus, is endemic to South Africa. It only occurs in the afromontane yellowwood forests found in KwaZulu-Natal, the eastern cape and Limpopo. These trees are utilised by the cape parrot for food and nesting sites, but due to habitat destruction, these forests are becoming more and more fragmented, leaving the parrot with less and less place to live.
