Pretty amazing focus to keep going through the entire song! What energy! Just curious - is the high stepping a common cockatoo behavior or is he mimicing his people?

I don't think his people could hold a candle to his dancing Seriously, I think that was 100% Snowball expressing himself. I have had cockatiels that loved to kind of "pace" across a perch and bounce to music, but nothing like Snowball. My Lucas does get really, really wound up at times and also "paces" in his own way .. still nothing like Snowball and his dancing.

Thank you so much for the heads up. I watch Snowball every day and laugh every time I see him.

I did e-mail Irena and told her how much we were enjoying Snowball's video and got a nice reply back. Just think what help he could be contributing to parrots in general.

Especially if it helps people understand that parrots don't bite and scream because they're bad, but because their perspective is different from ours.

I just watched the segment on the Letterman show last night. (I taped it). David Letterman made me MAD. He kept poking at the Snowball and looked thoroughly disgusted when he had to pick up the poop off of the chair. He acted like an idiot if you ask me.

I agree.

He seemed bored with the whole thing and wouldn't even let Snowball finish.
