Since lots of folks here seem to think of their birds as aliens, I thought I'd share with you a thought I had for a low-budget movie. Maybe you'll have some ideas to incorporate into it!
I always thought it'd be funny to have a little film from "the parrot's perspective", talking about these bizarre, wingless mammals they have enlisted to do their bidding...
Some of the things it'd go over would be:
1. The bizarre living conditions of these humans. Better get them to buy you one of these metal enclosures and train them to keep their stuff out of it.
2. Teach them to bring you food each day and new shredding material.
3. Test their hearing by making very loud noises and very quiet noises to see if they flinch.
What other things do you think the parrots in this film could discuss about the bizarre, wingless mammals they live with?

The various flavors we come in/or the DNA studies they are running from the mother ship from their carefully selected tissue samples. The Too that ate Chicago, I can see it now.

LOL! Thanks, Anna!
I wonder what flavors we do come in... I wonder if it varies depending on what we've eaten, etc. and maybe that's "really" why we might get bitten.

Now I have slept on this idea-They are trying to improve our species through training-they test us frequently over cage locks & re-engineering our diets, our furniture our lives! Just have to wonder what they are aiming for in their improvement of our species. Any ideas?

Hm... I like those ideas! Will have to ponder that question...

Michelle,
I think I would amend #1 by adding: How to get them to rid themselves of the things they keep in their bizarre living conditions to allow room for more and larger metal enclosures.

My Scarlet says we all taste like chicken. LOL

Somebody remove my post. I posted it before I read yours.

Fergie (Scarlet Macaw) told me it was not to improve our species. It is merely entertainment for them.

They learn our language because they know we are not capable of learning theirs. They learn our language so they can entertain themselves. They "let" us teach them the "Up Command." They practice it perfectly for about four years, depending on the species. Then they say "Up" and instead of offering a big honkin' foot, when we reach for them, we discover they have quickly turned around and are presenting their boody (sp?) to us. Only they know why. Perhaps they are mooning us.
They teach us games to entertain themselves and for our exercise. They teach us "I dropped it now you pick it up."

Cloud told me they do that so they can see if our tail feathers are coming in yet.

They can't tell male vs female without us being DNA sexed. They wonder how we tell the difference. They discuss incubation times.
They allow us to have pets but keep them in line as well.

Don't worry about it, Dot. Apparently we were conditioned by the same Mothership program version on Human conditioning. The goal was to present two subjects with the same question to see if they could come up with identical answers.

But the question is were we supposed to come up with identical answers? I guess they have forward our answers to the Mother Ship to be analyzed.

Boy do they ever! This is the newest game at my house. That and the "your cage is my cage" game.. where Mick ends up on Tikis swing and Tiki eats all his food!
