Just a note... I hate it that people see the way that I am able to interact with Hermes and then decide that 'they want a bird too'. A lot of people expect that they can walk into a bird store and buy a bird just like my baby.

They think the bird will do tricks, start talking, lay in their hands and give them kisses, and not even poop on the floor! These are behaviors that I work on EVERY DAY. Not everyone should own a bird, but maybe all of us make it look too easy? I just hate it.... sorry for the complaint.
