Wild Bird Feeders

The three Caiques, Chloe and Rafa (apricot-head WBC's) and Gerry (black-head BHC), enjoy some of the last of the season's warm afternoons in the backyard before the winter arrives. In this final portion 3 of 3, we have Rafa on the sidewalk, and all three climbing the wild bird feeder stand. They don't seem to understand that they are too heavy for our "Eliminator" bird feeder, which is designed to shut the feeding holes when larger birds land on the perch, saving the food for little finches and sparrows. (Note: this yard is fully fenced with 6-foot bamboo over chainlink, has good tree cover, and is a controlled and safe environment. We don't even fertilize the grass to ensure a safe environment for them, and their wings are clipped. We also do not take them out if it is windy, lest they catch a gust and manage to get blown over the fence. They are NEVER outside unattended, and are always kept within an arm's reach of either my husband or myself. Please, never take your parrots outside unless they are 100% safe in every way!)
