How many birds would it take to change a light bulb?

[Dot]

Years ago I got an email called "How many dogs would it take to change a light bulb?" It was really cute so I changed it to "birds" and we all had a lot of fun. Feel free to let your imagination run wild, and remember, Michelle is bored. :D

Blue-fronted Amazons: 1 She would look at me, bat her eyelashes, and I would change the bulb.

Macaws: 5-6 and they still might not get it changed. They are all ADHD and the conversation would go something like this:
Macaw 1: Hey, why did we come up here?
Macaw 2: I don't remember. What's that shiny thing?
Macaw 3: Hey, look, dust that floats in the air.
Macaw 4: Bet I can catch more than you can.
Macaw 5: Can not.
Macaw 6: Here's one.
Macaw 7: Here's one.
Macaw 8: Hey, are we chasing the shiny things or the dust things?
Macaw 9: Don't touch that. It's hot.
Macaw 10: Touch what. Owee! That's hot.

How many birds would it take to change a light bulb at your house?

Three.
1. Fergie to switch off the light because macaw #9 says it's hot.
2. Linus to prop up the ladder where he chew the leg off.
3. Uriel (see 'Loooser" photo) to screw and unscrew.

It would only take Mars (red lory) to do half the job:

1) Grapple up ladder
2) Lay on back and unscrew light bulb
3) Throw light bulb to ground while yelling, "YEAH! YEAH!"
4) Notice uncanny resemblance between bulb socket and flower bulb
5) Attempt to pollinate - ZAP!

Hmmmm...how is it possible that natural selection hasn't gotten these guys yet?

Forget about actually changing the bulb. This is what would happen as a result of the bulb going out:

Loretta (YNA): O.K.! The light haS GONE OUT!!! Run Everyone, RUN! SAVE YOURSELVES!!! GET OUT NOW!

PJ (OWA): My, My, this could indeed be a state of emergency. I will no longer be able to see myself in that shiny water bowl. And how will anyone be able to admire my shaply figure? Oh, well...I'm sure one of those other good for nothing feather dusters will do something about it at some point.

Benny (BE2): ::Clinging to the top of his cage like a bat:: I'm afraid of the dark. Will someone please go get my mommy?

Gengerale (cockatiel), To Luke (Mate): Hey baby, what's your sign? We should get cozy.

Cooper (cockatiel), to Ash (Mate): Don't touch me.

Chrissy (Ringneck): Who touched my foot!!??!! Now yer gunna die!!!

Peggy Sue (B&G): Time out? What do you mean I'm in time out? What did I do? How depressing.

Uriel (GW): Hi Uriel! Hi Uriel! Hiiiii Uriel. Hiiiiii! Hello? Hey Baby! Boo boo, ba ba, baaaaby. How are you? Hi Uriel. Hi.

Mars & Orbit (Red lories): The almighty sun has left us. We must obey this mystical force. For those who have not obeyed, repent now for the time is near. The darkness has come upon us. We must obey. Obey or be cursed for all eternity.

That is a great one Anna, and yes our BE2's would go running for mommy!!!

[TikiTalks]

Mmmm.. more than my flock!!! They're all ADHD like mommy.. Except Tucker.. he's just "supervising"

[Julie]

Gotta love that Lucy, after all Greys do know whats best!

[too&me]

Harry would not so politely point out the light was out and while you changed it for him he would point out dust on the fixture. Buzbee would be laughing maniacally & making strafing runs on your hands as you work.:eek:

[Wanda and Flock]

Okay Anna, here's the rest of your answers..

Benny (Triton)- He wouldn't attempt it. He would wait for you to start walking toward it and bite your foot hollering "What er ya doin' doin'?" He'd have one eye on Eve, wondering....can I make it over to her before the light comes back???

Eve...she'd just turn around and nuzzle her nose back into her feathers...a girl needs her beauty rest ya know.


Dolly.. She'd call me! "Wandaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" She knows I'd come running to reassure she is still Dolly, Pretty Dolly. She'd have one eye on Benny- wondering- How fast he's going to try to come over and how quick her bite reflex is.

Lucy... She'd just get real annoyed because you didn't change the bulb BEFORE it burned out. Stupid Human.
