No - its a philodendron and it is highly toxic if your bird bites it. Please be aware of this.

I'm aware it's a philodendron, never had a problem with this bird biting it. My love bird won't touch it either other than to climb on once in awhile. Some of the philodendrons in my yard have leaves over a foot wide and are 40' long. I see birds in them all the time.
I've noticed they won't chew on the ficus tree in my lanai they perch in either.

thanks for spotting it however.

Thanks Tiki...Yea my bird thinks he's beautiful too. RIght now he's outside in my lanai imitating a sharp shinned hawk that's nested in one of my trees.

He drives that hawk crazy every year when she nests there. He's got her call down pat.
