Talking Rent This Movie!

If ya'll are able to I highly recommend renting "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill." It's a wonderful documentary of a man studying the relationships within flock of cherry headed conures. It will bring a smile to your face and possibly bring out some interesting expressions from your "children" as well. My "boy" got excited. If you have already seen it share your thoughts!

Lori, thanks for posting the link. Mark is a great guy and I highly recommend the DVD, it has lots of updates on the birds you first meet in the book and movie!

A VERY CAPTIVATING FILM.

Just watched part of the interview.
Tiki, you look as I pictured you...beautiful, soft spoken and very layed back.

I haven't seen the movie yet (plan on buying the DVD soon) but I really enjoyed the book. Tiki's interview is wonderful as well :)
